HOW TO ORGANIZE SCIENTIFIC ACTIVITY IN A MUSEUM

Journal Title: Muzealnictwo - Year 2014, Vol 55, Issue

Abstract

Depending on their profile and collections, museums perform scientific activity in every field of knowledge. Scientific activity is essential for high level of development of collections, publications, scenarios of permanent and temporary exhibitions as well as protection and safe sharing of collections. Unlike universities, institutes of the Polish Academy of Sciences or other typical scientific units, organizational structure of museum is not optimized in terms of performing scientific activity; in particular, no museum employees are assigned to conduct research. Conducted every four years by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, complex evaluation and categorization of scientific units allows for obtaining unbiased data regarding activity of scientific units. Units being categorized can apply for financial support granted to fund their statutory scientific activity. This article aims at presenting experiences and opinions of the authors regarding obtaining scientific category by museums.
