Abstract

In the information age, storage has become an essential element of managing museum collections. The complexity and variety of functions now encompassed by storage have moved it beyond its traditional conception to be regarded as a system of interconnected and organised elements that work as a whole and fosters knowledge through complex flows of information . Having recently celebrated its 200th anniversary, with three million visitors a year and an online audience that exceeds 10 million, the Museo Nacional del Prado in Madrid, Spain, has accumulated extensive experience in the management of its collections. Highlighting the importance of information generated by storage systems is key to our proposal for more efficient museum management. It also allows us to address the continuous challenges of a changing society, which has emerging values related to participation, sustainability and new forms of accessing heritage.

摘要

在信息时代，存储已成为管理博物馆藏品的基本要素。存储现在包含的复杂性和多种功能使其超越了传统概念，被视为一个相互关联和有组织的元素系统，作为一个整体工作，并通过复杂的信息流培养知识。最近庆祝成立 200 周年，每年有 300 万游客和超过 1000 万在线观众，位于西班牙马德里的国家普拉多博物馆在其藏品管理方面积累了丰富的经验。强调存储系统生成的信息的重要性是我们提出更高效博物馆管理建议的关键。它还使我们能够应对不断变化的社会所带来的持续挑战，
