The Institute of Museum and Library Services and the American Association of Museums offer the Museum Assessment Program (MAP), which is designed to help museums assess their strengths and weaknesses in order to better plan for the future. MAP offers technical assistance to museums for four kinds of assessments: collections management, governance, institutional, and public dimension. Assessments are funded on a first-come, first-served basis. There is no cost associated with participation for museums with annual operating expenses of up to $125,000. Museums with higher expenses are charged nominal fees for their participation. Applications are due February 15, 2009. For additional information, visit the website provided above.
