With increased public investment and growing employment
opportunities, the cultural and creative sectors have made a
substantial contribution to economic and social development in many
countries across the world. Ashgate, Gower and Lund Humphries offer
a range of exciting titles which include undergraduate and graduate
texts, handbooks for professional practice, reference books and
research monographs on topics across the broad spectrum of cultural
activities.
Information and Cultural Management
Ashgate’s Information and Cultural Management list is growing in
response to international demand for new and innovative titles on
the management of cultural organizations including the visual and
performing arts, museums and heritage institutions, and library and
information centres.
Information and Cultural Management titles from Ashgate include
a wide range of authoritative texts on key skills in libraries,
museums, archives, and heritage institutions. Many of our texts
have reached their second, third or even later editions in
recognition of their valuable contribution to information and
cultural management best practice. The list includes a range of
practical and reference books on archives and record management,
classification, library planning and design, and museum management,
with a heritage management list in development.
We also have a particularly strong list of research monographs
in library and information science.
