“Whether you want to start a new museum volunteer program or revitalize an existing one, this toolkit will guide you toward the resources and framework you need to be successful and sustainable. By framework, we mean a combination of tools, policies, procedures, and systems you put in place to construct a well-run and sustainable volunteer program”

s (AAM) and the American Association for Museum Volunteers (AAMV) are included in each section.
