New guidelines to regulate museum sector
In March, 2015, Premier Li Keqiang signed the State Council's first regulation of museums to regulate China's vast museum sector.
Except the big and established ones, many Chinese museums don't have the resources to manage their collections or haven't been officially registered as museums.
According to the new guidelines, all the museums are demanded to have collection reservation areas, complete management systems and approval documents.
