Synopsis

The Smithsonian Institution's "National Museum" is an in-depth report of the work and progress of the United States National Museum. Initially founded in 1846, this book traces the history of its inception and growth. Not only does this book summarize the work that was undertaken in the 1908 fiscal year, but it also provides an overview of the museum's larger mission. That mission, as the author explains, is to not only grow and preserve the museum's collections, but also to share and disseminate the knowledge of those collections with the world. The author also stresses the importance of the museum's educational mission. Not only does the museum serve as a repository for national collections, but it is a vital part of the Washington, D.C. community, hosting school groups and offering classes. The book describes innovative ways the museum is leveraging their work to reach communities and individuals who cannot visit the museum in person. This book is a valuable resource for anyone wanting to learn about the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum.
