  • The Theme of This Talk, and This Conference, Is the Renewal of University Museums
    Museums for the Future: Recognising new relevance for University Museums Kate Arnold-Forster University of Reading The theme of this talk, and this conference, is the renewal of university museums. Its aim is to ask how as curators and managers to secure not only the survival of the collections we care for, but also how to ensure they contribute in relevant ways to the institutions to which they belong. All of us, who work with university museums probably agree that the answer, in theory, is short and simple – we need to find ways of making our University’s take notice, appreciate what these museums and collections do and support them accordingly. But how to do this is not always that obvious. So my talk is an account of the approach we took at the University of Reading. This case study looks back over a process (and the lessons learnt) whereby the University took steps to establish a co-ordinated and strategic approach to the management of its university museums, alongside a period of major regeneration that has seen capital improvements of more than £12million and the reinvigoration of its collections. To put Reading’s story in context, I want to start by saying something about the position of UK university museums today and how this has developed in recent years. Many working in the University museums sector will agree that we can look back over a period, in the past decade, of immense change for University Museums, one in which their profile has been transformed, partly by the concentration of major redevelopment in the sector, but also by renewed recognition of their value and importance.
