Beyond their often beautiful exhibition halls, many museums contain vast, hidden spaces in which objects may be stored, conserved, or processed. Museums can also include unseen archives, study rooms, and libraries which are inaccessible to the public. This collection of essays focuses on this domain, an area that has hitherto received little attention. Divided into four sections, the book critically examines the physical space of museum storage areas, the fluctuating historical fortunes of exhibits, the growing phenomenon of publicly visible storage, and the politics of objects deemed worthy of collection but unsuitable for display. In doing so, it explores issues including the relationship between storage and canonization, the politics of collecting, the use of museum storage as a form of censorship, the architectural character of storage space, and the economic and epistemic value of museum objects. Essay contributions come from a broad combination of museum directors, curators, archaeologists, historians, and other academics.

Excerpt from The Museums Journal, Vol. 6: The Organ of the Museums Association; July 1906, to June, 1907 While there has been an accession of new members and associates during the past year, the actual increase in numbers has not been large, for. There have been several resignations. Five museums and art galleries have joined the Association in the year, and one museum has resigned, so that there has been an increase of four members. On the other hand the eight new associates simply fill the place of eight others resigned. There has consequently been no material increase of income, though there has been an appreciable decrease of expenditure, for while the Journal has been practically of the same bulk as in the previous year, the completing instalments of the Museums Directory have been less.
