Description

Offers an account of the financial struggles and administrative controversies of a distinguished research library and museum. Examines the Society's efforts to overcome a tradition of mismanagement and elitism, looking at issues such as the deleterious effects of intense media coverage, the distinction between financial and cultural assets, and ethical considerations raised by selling works from a museum collection. Of interest to executives, managers, board members, trustees, and students of nonprofit organizations. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
