The manual covers general principles of security: basic protection services; building protection services; prevention of theft and burglary; security personnel; training; collections management and transport; disaster planning; fire and environmental hazards; checklist of security procedures. It is designed to operate in all conditions and sizes of museum. It stresses that good basic principles are the key to effective protection from hazard. |

| Abstract: Le Comité national italien de l'ICOM conscient de la nécessité pour les responsables des musées italiens de disposer d'un manuel aussi complet que possible dans le domaine de la sécurité des collections a encouragé la publication et la traduction en italien du manuel, coordonné par David Liston et publié en anglais en 1993 par l'ICMS chez Routledge. Cet ouvrage constitue un guide complet pour résoudre les problèmes liés à la sécurité tant sur le plan pratique que sur le plan théorique et quelles que soient la dimension et la typologie des musées considérés. Les situations évoquées dans l'ouvrage original ne sont pas toujours applicables à la situation italienne. C'est pourquoi il a paru utile d'ajouter une introduction rédigée par le responsable de l'édition italienne, Carlo Teruzzi, spécialiste dans le domaine de la sécurité et notamment dans celui de la sécurité des musées. Il explique donc les choix de traduction ou dans certains cas, d'adaptation pour se conformer à la situation italienne. ***** ICOM-Italy felt the necessity to provide Italian museum professionals with a handbook covering museum security principles. Therefore the Italian National Committee of ICOM encouraged the publication of a translation into Italian of the ICMS handbook edited by David Liston and published in English in 1993 by Routledge. This book is a useful guide to help resolve museum security problems on the practical level as well as on a theoretical level. It is an essential tool for museum professionals whatever size and type of their museums. Carlo Teruzzi, editor of the Italian version, is a specialist in security problems and over the last years he worked a lot in the museum sector. In some cases he adapted the text to the Italian situation which may differ from the situations described in the original version. |

| Abstract: In April 2001 an international congress on "Catastrophes and Catastrophe Management in Museums" was held in Sarajevo, where the damages of war were still present. The papers are written either in English, Bosnian or German, but in any case the abstract was translated into all three languages. Although most reports concentrate on the events and damages during war, many of these contributions can also be regarded as a cry for help to the international museums community. The other papers give guidelines how to cope with disasters such as earth quakes, floods and fire, and how to rescue and restore the affected museums collections. It soon becomes evident, that a "golden rule" of catastrophe management cannot be presented. An individual emergency plan has to be developed for each museum giving account to the specific nature of both building and collection. The papers in this volume provide significant aid in fulfilling this task. And they remind you that it does not take a river to produce a flood: A broken water pipe can have quite the same effects! |
