Abstract

 Numerous challenges are associated with scientific collection management including available resources, strategy development, communication, conservation plans, incorporation policies and other issues arising in day-to-day operations. All of these actions are part of ex situ geological and paleontological collections each with their own problems and solutions. This study carries out a comparative investigation of integrative strategies (databases and networks) in Brazilian geology and paleontology collections related to the university environment. A survey submitted to curators from 41 collections at 23 different institutions from Brazil allowed gathering information about their curatorial practices. The collected data used quantitative and qualitative methodologies, drawing parallel to the literature when appropriate. The analysis of these Brazilian collections shows how transdisciplinary innovation transforms museological environments, based on networks and database systems, enabling best practices. Whether through collection networks, systems or databases, interdisciplinary work permeates the entire life of the scientific object and, therefore, is considered a fundamental action in its maintenance and management. It became clear that the national reality, permeated with museological solutions, could easily be interpreted and adapted for similar collections, agreeing on best practices to the preservation of ex situ paleontological and geological heritage.

巴西地质和古生物藏品的馆藏管理:原地地质遗产的综合政策
科学收藏管理面临众多挑战,包括可用资源、战略制定、沟通、保护计划、纳入政策以及日常运作中出现的其他问题。所有这些行动都是原地地质和古生物藏品的一部分,都有各自的问题和解决方案。本研究对巴西与大学环境有关的地质学和古生物学藏品的综合战略(数据库和网络)进行了比较调查。通过对巴西 23 个不同机构的 41 个收藏馆的馆长进行调查,收集了他们的馆藏实践信息。所收集的数据采用了定量和定性方法,并在适当时参考了相关文献。对这些巴西藏品的分析表明,跨学科创新如何在网络和数据库系统的基础上改变博物馆学环境,使最佳实践成为可能。无论是通过藏品网络、系统还是数据库,跨学科工作都贯穿于科学物品的整个生命周期,因此被视为维护和管理科学物品的一项基本行动。很显然,各国的现实情况中都有博物馆学的解决方案,可以很容易地对类似的藏品 进行解释和调整,并就原地古生物和地质遗产保护的最佳做法达成一致意见。

期刊介绍: The Geoheritage journal is an international journal dedicated to discussing all aspects of our global geoheritage, both in situ and portable. The journal will invite all contributions on the conservation of sites and materials - use, protection and practical heritage management - as well as its interpretation through education, training and tourism. The journal wishes to cover all aspects of geoheritage and its protection. Key topics are: - Identification, characterisation, quantification and management of geoheritage; - Geodiversity and geosites; - On-site science, geological and geomorphological research: - Global scientific heritage - key scientific geosites, GSSPs, stratotype conservation and management; - Scientific research and education, and the promotion of the geosciences thereby; - Conventions, statute and legal instruments, national and international; - Integration of biodiversity and geodiversity in nature conservation and land-use policies; - Geological heritage and Environmental Impact Assessment studies; - Geological heritage, sustainable development, community action, practical initiatives and tourism; - Geoparks: creation, management and outputs; - Conservation in the natural world, Man-made and natural impacts, climate change; - Geotourism definitions, methodologies, and case studies; - International mechanisms for conservation and popularisation - World Heritage Sites, National Parks etc.; - Materials, data and people important in the history of science, museums, collections and all portable geoheritage; - Education and training of geoheritage specialists; - Pedagogical use of geological heritage - publications, teaching media, trails, centres, on-site museums; - Linking the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005- 2014) with geoconservation.
