Résumé:

"Robert Janes is a leading voice in the changes taking place in Canada's cultural institutions. In this case study, he candidly discusses layoffs, union/management relations, and the urgency of sustainability. Contributions from Glenbow staff highlight the human side of change, and essays by Canadian and international museum directors present thoughtful perspectives."--Jacket
