An Overview of the Country’s Museums

Abstract

This article was commissioned by the government’s Information Department in 2006 to be part of its commemorative publication for the 40th anniversary of Independence. It was only recently that I discovered that this book had indeed been published but without this chapter. The historical background remains as factually correct as it was then. Other information, for instance, such as staffi ng levels, was correct at the time of writing. Otherwise signifi cant change since the article was written has occurred only, I believe, at the Phuthadikobo Museum in Mochudi.
