UK charity helping museums, libraries, galleries, and archives improve collections management.
Professional Association Active
The Collections Trust is an independent UK-based charity that works with museums, libraries, galleries, and archives worldwide to improve the management and use of collections. Originally established in 1977 as the Museum Documentation Association (MDA), it relaunched as the Collections Trust in 2008. The organization develops and maintains the SPECTRUM standard, a widely adopted collections management standard used by museums across the UK and internationally, defining procedures for documentation and information management.
