Visitor engagement and learning; outreach; and inclusion are concepts that have long dominated professional museum discourses. The recent rapid uptake of various forms of social media in many parts of the world; however; calls for a reformulation of familiar opportunities and obstacles in museum debates and practices. Young people; as both early adopters of digital forms of communication and latecomers to museums; increasingly figure as a key target group for many museums. This volume presents and discusses the most advanced research on the multiple ways in which social media operates to transform museum communications in countries as diverse as Australia; Denmark; Germany; Norway; the UK; and the United States. It examines the socio-cultural contexts; organizational and education consequences; and methodological implications of these transformations.

Stories you wish you could tell of yourselfBy Spencer CatheyThis book captures the devil-may-care attitude that each person has during those exciting times when their destinies unfold. If you have had a peak experience or two in your life; you will recognize that thrill. To say the book is about fishing in Alaska is like saying Melvilles "Moby Dick" is about whale hunting. The author demonstrates a great love of Alaska and Alaskans and as the book closes; the reader will understand why the author chose to call it "The Lost Art of Alaska Fishing". Back to the future!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. ... is an in depth chronicle of Alaska fishermen with beautiful pencil sketches elucidating the narrativeBy J.D.
