MAP is a technical assistance program that offers museums an
opportunity to strengthen operations and plan for the future through a
process of self-assessment, institutional activities, and consultative
peer review. MAP is supported through a cooperative agreement between
IMLS and the American Alliance of Museums. Program participants choose
from among five assessments: Organizational, Collections Stewardship,
Community and Audience Engagement, Board Leadership, and Education and
Interpretation. Those who complete the assessment receive a report with
prioritized recommendations reflecting the assessment type chosen. The
forms submitted for public review include the MAP Application, the MAP
Signatures Page, the MAP Follow-Up Visit Request Form, and five surveys
addressing specific aspects of the assessment process, the materials
used, the individual(s) serving as peer reviewers, and the impact one
year after the assessment's conclusion. The application forms are used
in participant selection and notification, and the surveys are designed
to enhance understanding of where and how the program can be improved.
