As times go, a museum extends its functions, such as assisting in school education, leisure entertainment, promoting government orders, matching industrial, governmental and academic circles, developing and selling knowledge natured merchandise, in addition to the traditional functions of a museum, collection, research, exhibition and education. As a resource inputer, integrater, user and outputer, a museum needs more software and hardware construction, manpower for service, knowledge management and funds to satisfy the public needs.
Museums in Taiwan have met the bottleneck and faced challenges because of the limited resource, mutual competition, variety of visitors’ demands, conservative and passive museum management methods. The public museums whose funds come from the government supplies, in particular, are on a tight budget because government retrenches the budget for economic slump. Therefore, raising outside resource, manpower, knowledge and funds actively becomes the most important issue of the museums.
The research uses literature review and case study as the methods to discuss the development and utilization of museum resource. Ontario Science Centre,Tate Gallery and National Science and Technology Museum are taken as the study cases. The research makes reference to the development of social resource in the cases and reviews the difficult position and practice of the museums in the nation. The author hopes the research can provide reference about social resource utilization for the museums in the nation.
