Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park Museum Management Plan
A Museum Management Plan (MMP) identifies the key collection management issues facing a park and presents a series of recommendations to address those issues. This MMP was written for the museum and archival collections at Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park Seattle Unit. It was developed by a team of experienced museum and archival collections management professionals working in cooperation with park management and staff. It offers guidance in refining the program and makes suggestions to improve the parks museum programs. At the parks inception, its collections were mainly seen as props for visitor center exhibits. In the thirty years since then, the museum program has evolved into a more proactive one in which the goal is to expand research opportunities concerning the Klondike Gold Rush. The recent (July 2005) move of the park headquarters and visitor center increased the size of the exhibit space and provided an opportunity to develop the museum collection room. However, rehabilitation of an historic structure always involves challenges, and the space identified for collections has a number of issues that need to be addressed.
