Abstract. The following contribution focuses on the low-cost Shining 3D EinScan-Pro scanner, above all the analysis of its precision and accuracy.

In particular, two types…
Le char du tumulus du Trembloi, commune de Magny-Lambert (Côte-d’Or)
2013
L’étude des collections protohistoriques du Musée archéologique de Dijon nous a mené à enquêter sur un fragment de moyeu de char hallstattien conservé dans la collection Brulard et indiqué comme provenant du tumulus du Trembloi à Magny-Lambert (Côte-d’Or). Si, depuis les travaux de R. Joffroy, le doute concernant la provenance de cet objet semblait permis, la mise à notre disposition de l’inventaire du musée ainsi que des manuscrits inédits du docteur Brulard et les détails qu’ils révèlent permettent de contredire cette thèse. Study of the protohistoric collections in the Archaeological Museum of Dijon led to us to investigate a fragment of an iron hub from an early Iron Age wagon in the Br…

The work herein described is presented as an example of good practices in reco…
Art branding i jego rola w działalności muzeum - na przykładzie Muzeum Uniwersytetu Opolskiego
2018
This paper discusses the question of building the awareness and strengthening the positive image of the brand of the Museum of Opole University in the local community.

I musei naturalistici come presidi ambientali e culturali. L'Orto botanico di Palermo
2013
La funzione degli Orti botanici, fondamentalmente, si esplica nella conservazione, nella ricerca scientifica, nelle attività espositive ed educative. I punti di forza dell’azione sociale di questi tipi di musei deriva sia dalla capacità di produrre e diffondere la conoscenza scientifica, sia dalla ricchezza patrimoniale posseduta. Una serie di emergenze planetarie e le prospettive incerte per l’ambiente, le società, le economie di tutte le nazioni del mondo configurano lo scenario d’oggi. Questa situazione richiede la costruzione collettiva di nuove forme di sentire, pensare e agire nella ricerca di soluzione ai problemi contemporanei. Si tratta quindi, per i musei scientifici, di intrapren…

Poisto museokokoelmasta : museologinen arvokeskustelu kokoelmanhallinnan määrittäjänä
2016
This dissertation studies the issue of disposal in Finnish art museums. It is a research in the field of museology, in which museography plays a significant role. The field of museology functions as a science bridging theory and practice. In the research, museum collection management is divided into seven areas: acquisition, inventory, condition assessment, value assessment, conservation, upkeep and disposal. It is essential that collection management be viewed as a unified chain of operations, starting from acquisition and ending in disposal. This creates a bridge from the start of collection management to its end procedures, at which point the total disposal of an item is a possibility. A…
Checklist of the Mammal Collection Preserved at the University of Palermo under the Framework of the National Biodiversity Future Center
2023
The latest reorganization of the Vertebrate collections preserved at the “Pietro Doderlein” Museum of Zoology of the University of Palermo (Italy) has made it possible to draw up a check-list of the Mammal taxa present in the stuffed (M), fluid-preserved (ML) and anatomical (AN) collections. The intervention was planned under the National Biodiversity Future Center (NBFC) agenda, focused on the enhancement of Italian natural history museums. The growing interest in museum collections strongly demands databases available to the academic and policy world. In this paper, we record 679 specimens belonging to 157 specific taxa arranged in 58 families and 16 orders. Most of the species (75.1%) co…
