The document discusses best practices for developing an exhibition, including: 1) Defining the difference between storage, open storage, and an exhibition with themes, interpretation, and labeling. 2) Developing themes based on a museum's collection, key objects, and stories to tell. Collection management supports exhibitions by documenting objects and information. 3) The exhibition development process which includes consultation, defined roles and stages, and someone to drive the process from a content kit to design and layout. Labels are key to linking objects and themes.
