The first new edition in a decade of this famous "bible of the museum registrar," rewritten, expanded and fully updated.

New with the 5th Edition are special teaching sections that challenge students and seasoned staff alike with questions about the process and procedure of accessioning and caring for objects. Contains bibliography, glossary and multiple sample forms. MRM5 proudly continues a tradition of museum publishing that began with the inaugural edition in 1958.
