UMIS Conference Programme 2013 Research in Museums: Museums in Research 8th Biennial University Museums in Scotland (UMIS) conference University of St Andrews, 31 October – 1 November 2013 The conference will focus on the role of museums in academic research and how it can be fostered and managed. There is a long tradition of scholarly research on museum collections, and much recent research focusing on visitor studies and the social role of museums. The place of research in museums and the value of museums to researchers is coming under scrutiny, with the attitude of different institutions to its role and value increasingly divergent. Questions to be addressed include how links can be fostered between researchers, students and museums; the role of museums in developing funded research projects; the development of local, national and international research partnerships and collaborations; the role of museums in public engagement with research; whether museums based in academic institutions have a special role; and the place of museum staff as researchers. UMIS: University Museums in Scotland exists to foster the preservation, care and interpretation of historical and cultural collections in Scottish Universities, and to promote the interests of the collections. http://www.umis.ac.uk/ The conference is being hosted by the University of St Andrews. The University has three Accredited museums: MUSA (The Museum of the University of St Andrews), the Gateway Galleries (temporary exhibitions) and the Bell Pettigrew Museum (zoology), plus the MUSA Collections Centre, an open-access store and research centre. The Heritage, Chemistry and Historic Scientific Instrument Collections are Recognised Collections of National Significance. http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/museum/ Conference Pricing:- Conference day rate £45 including lunch and two coffee breaks. Students £20. Full conference £90. Students £40. Conference dinner (optional) £30 for 3 courses Ceilidh (optional) £10. Cash bar.

Some of it may have been acquired by other councils, like the former county, or district councils. However, almost all former burghs had a Common Good Fund, which consisted of land, buildings, moveable items like paintings, and cash. The land and buildings which a burgh owned were made up of three main categories: those acquired under a statute (for example, land bought for council housing); land held on trust where a benefactor had provided for a specific trust to be administered by the fund; and Common Good property. What property now forms parts of the Common Good Fund may sometimes need research, as it may not be obvious from the titles what property was acquired for. 2 Anstruther ANSTRUTHER Former Burghs: Kilrenny Royal Burgh, Anstruther Easter Royal Burgh and Anstruther Wester Royal Burgh SRN (GRPN/OR ref) Asset (Name or description) Type of asset Location Town Extent Origin (Provenance) Accession number (if
