THE SCIENTIFIC ASPECTS IN REGULATIONS RELATED TO MUSEUMS

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

Abstract

As far as the scientific context is concerned, the activities performed by museums may be divided into two categories: museums serve persons and subjects conducting scientific research and perform scientific activity by for example producing scientific publications. The types of scientific activities mentioned above performed by museums are reflected in official setting of museum’s objectives and activities specified in statutes and regulations. In particular, the scientific activity is essential for registered museums listed in the National Museums Register. In order to be listed in this Register, a museum must represent i.a. high level of accomplishments in the field of diverse scientific activities and posses an appropriate research staff. Professional achievements in the field of research were also included in the regulation regarding qualifications required for museum professionals. Moreover, the activity of museums may be analysed in the context of general regulations related to science, in particular the law on financing rules of science specifying scientific bodies, which are i.a. museums. The financial aspect of research activity performed by museums may be also analysed on the basis of public procurement rules (the Law on public procurement), which include exclusions regarding i.a. supplies and services exclusively for research or scientific purposes.
