Although the heritage scene all around the world is blossoming with new centres and organisations, often institutions don’t spend enough time learning and reading about best practices. This website developed by the Connecticut Humanities Council’s Heritage Resource Center (HRC) is designed to connect directors, staff, and board members with current thinking and discussion on the most important issues affecting museums, historical societies, arts agencies, and other non-profit cultural organisations today.

It has book reviews, links to useful Web sites and blogs, and a variety of reports, surveys, and tools all organized around eight core subject areas:

Audience Assessment & Evaluation

Technology & New Media

Marketing & Communications

Leadership & Governance

Finance & Business Planning

Collections & Archives

Museum Education

Public Programming

Community Center

A really helpful and useful resource.
