Abstract
TO-DAY, as at no past period in the history of the museums of Great Britain, active and enlightened minds are applying themselves to review the accomplishments of these institutions and to devise means for their greater participation in the life of the nation. In endeavouring to interpret the ‘new museum outlook’ which loomed through this outburst of interest, we alluded in a leading article in NATURE (June 29, 1928) to a museum feeling in the air. Fresh and welcome evidence of this spirit is afforded by Part 1 of the Final Report of the Royal Commission on National Museums and Galleries, to which references have already been made in our columns.
