Jamie James to Release STEPPIN' BACK 2009 Archival Collection via Oglio Entertainment - BroadwayWorld

Museum studies and archival science are the scholarly and professional fields concerned with how collections of objects and records are acquired, documented, cared for, interpreted and made available over time. Museum studies (also called museology) looks at museums as institutions: what they collect, how they exhibit and teach, whom they serve and how they are governed. Archival science (archival studies) looks at records and the archives that keep them: why records are created, how their meaning depends on context, and how they stay authentic and usable. The two fields share a core problem, which is keeping evidence of the past trustworthy and accessible, and they increasingly share methods, especially in digital preservation and in the ethics of ownership. This guide explains what each field is, the main subfields, how the work is done, the central ethical questions of provenance and repatriation, how people are trained, which professional bodies and funders matter, and how this territory touches research administration. Museum studies is an interdisciplinary field that treats the museum as an object of study and as a site of practice.
