뮤지엄 평가 현황을 통한 제도 도입방안 연구 = A Study on the Introduction of a Museum Evaluation Scheme Reviewing the Current Situation

국문 초록 (Abstract)

현대사회는 복잡하고 다변화된 양상을 보이고 있으며, 21세기로 접어들면서 국제화?세계화로 변화한 시대상황은 국가 간 경쟁뿐 만 아니라 동종 분야에서까지 생존을 위한 무한경쟁을 요구하고 있다. 공공서비스를 제공하며 항구적 비영리기관인 뮤지엄도 다양한 분야의 문화예술교육기관이 속속 등장하면서 한정된 자원의 수요가 많아지자 관의 존속과 운영여건의 개선을 위한 자체 재원 확보 등 경쟁력 확보가 중요해졌으며 이를 통해 뮤지엄의 일반적 기능인 자료의 수집, 보존, 연구, 전시, 교육과 함께 지역과 국가의 중추적 문화기관으로서의 역할을 다하고자 노력하고 있다.

As a result of, the number of museums in Korea radically increased over
700 including national, public, private and university museums. Currently professional
museums specialized in various fields are in preparation for construction. Here, the
degree of activation varies by individual museum in the sectors of display,
research and education which are the core business sectors of a museum. To
improve such condition, significant efforts are made to improve and vitalize
museum management including various cultural events held by the museum and
reinforcement of the customer service. However, compared with the dramatic
increase in quantity, the museum management which is a qualitative aspect
substantially differs by each institute.
In particular, some museums organize special exhibitions thanks to the
Lottery Fund Project of the Korean Museum Association or receive budget to
support their professional manpower. Here, the system to evaluate procedures and
the result of such funded projects differ in each sector and the evaluation system
is not structured systemically. Accordingly the parameter to estimate the degree of
activation is inarticulate so that various solutions should be examined to solve the
problem. Thus, the aim of this study was to suggest necessity to introduce an
evaluation system of mu
