The Engaging Museum by Graham Black

The Engaging Museum by Graham Black

The Engaging Museum is a practical guide book for museums and students on museum studies courses on how to create the highest quality experience for museum visitors.

"This is a well-researched, detailed book that presents much food for thought for museum managers and staff"

-Collection Management,vol.30, no 4

"...one of the greatest strengths of this book is the format itself. The text is supported with a range of boxes and other illustrative forms that serve to emphasise and break down key points: indeed a useful addition to a book that attempts to cover such a variety of themes...This book serves as a reader-friendly reference and is a very useful tool for museum and heritage professionals as well as students in relevant fields of study." - Dr Georgios Alexopoulos, University of York

Graham Black has worked in and with museums for over 40 years. Today, he combines his role as Professor of Museum Development at Nottingham Trent University, UK, with museum consultancy. Exhibitions on which he has acted as Interpretive Consultant have twice won the UK £100,000 Art Fund Prize, amongst many other awards. His previous publications include two books: The Engaging Museum, published in 2005, and Transforming Museums in the 21st Century, published in 2012, both with Routledge. In recent years, his belief that future museum content should be much more agile, fast-moving, cheap, and responsive has meant he has moved away from large, expensive re-display projects to working with local communities and organisations taking approaches that he believes can make a difference.
