The role of Touch in discussion (Museum Practice issue)

There is an interesting segment about "the role of touching" in the UK Museums Association's Museum Practice section section of the site.  In this months issue several articles analyze the notion of touch in the museums from different perspectives and interests, which brings up the discussion of the distance between the object and the visitor.  It also considers the difficulties or complicationso of working with handling collections.

Interesting topic whe it is a momento of redefinign many statements in times when engaging with your audience should be based on more than temporary exhibitions.
