Abstract

In August 2011, Danish Centre for Museum Research (DCMR) was established as a national research centre without walls. Members are Danish university departments that have museum research as a key research area, and the Centre currently lists 14 members spanning almost all universities. DCMR defines museum research in inclusive terms, embracing research on museums, archives, activity and experience centres and encompassing art, cultural and natural heritage in its tangible as well as intangible modes of articulation. The overall aim of the Centre is to advance the quantity and quality of Danish museum research and practice based on the scientific insights and resources originating from Danish universities and their Nordic and wider international research networks.
