Abstract: The Museum Assessment Program (MAP) is supported through a cooperative agreement between the Institute of Museum and Library Services and the American Alliance of Museums. It is designed to help museums assess their strengths and weaknesses, and plan for the future. The proposed MAP Evaluation is intended to measure the impact of the program to ascertain the extent to which the MAP objectives have been met, and to measure the degree to which the program has benefited participating museums.
