Making Museums Work

This year the Zero-In Museum Consortium launches Making Museums Work: A Zero in Handbook. In line with its efforts to promote museum culture, and to create better equipped and better informed museum institutions, this book is one of the pioneering efforts of the Zero-In Museum Consortium and the Museum Foundation of the Philippines to reach out to museum colleagues by providing a practical guide that engages common concerns and shared challenges in the different aspects of museum work.

Making Museums Work: A Zero In Handbook is a comprehensive resource for running sustainable museums within the context of the contemporary space, and geared towards addressing the needs of the ever-evolving museum-going public. This specialized collection of essays are written by expert museum professionals in the field who draw from practical and academic knowledge in their specialized fields. Among them, they have decades of combined professional experience. Apart from the specialized essays, the book is also able to utilize key points learned during the Zero-In workshops where participants shared their museum experiences, frustrations, challenges, and successes.

This book would not have been made possible without the generous support of its co-publishers, the Museum Foundation of the Philippines, Inc. and the Vibal Foundation.

Making Museums Work: A Zero In Handbook is available for purchase in all Zero-In Institutions for PHP 1,200.
