Abstract
The purpose of this project was to contribute a museological perspective to museum store merchandising practices. Based on the premise that museums must serve their communities with an expanded role of public service and education, the background research examined the importance of a museum store in the context of a museum-wide educational policy, and the product attempted to relay that information to museum store employees.
