Participative Strategies in Collecting the Present. Berlin: Panama-Verlag. 132 páginas, ISBN 978-3-938714-28-7.Esta publicação reflecte o interesse (crescente) sobre a definição de políticas de incorporação nos museus que incluam o presente: como documentar as realidades sociais e culturais contemporâneas através da recolha de objectos? Que prioridades? Que metodologias? Que critérios? Logo na introdução pode ler-se:«In their collecting policies, history museums, ethnographic museums, and city museums all over the world show a remarkable tendency not only to focus on the present, but also to involve individuals and groups outside the museums as experts on their culture and history. Such participative strategies challenge the theory and ethics that underpin traditional practices. Some of the values at stake are institutional autonomy and professional authority.» (p. 7)O conjunto de 13 textos incluídos neste livro resultam da primeira reunião anual (2011) de um dos mais novos comités internacionais do Conselho Internacional de Museus -  o International Committee for Collecting (COMCOL), organizada em conjunto  com o International Committee for the Collections and Activities of Museums of Cities (CAMOC)  e o ICOM regional Committee for Europe.Como sublinha Léontine Meijer-van Mensch e Peter van Mensch, para colecionar o presente há que perspectivar as colecções como conjuntos dinâmicos ao serviço da missão dos museus. E para a formação e desenvolvimento das colecções o trabalho em rede e a participação são palavras-chave (p. 8).A publicação é impressa, mas existe também em formato digital.
