Future of Museums explores the pivotal role of technology in reshaping museums, examining how digital advancements influence art, accessibility, and the core purpose of these institutions. It argues that museums must strategically integrate technology to remain relevant, not just by adding digital features but by fundamentally rethinking audience engagement and cultural heritage preservation.

It connects art history, computer science, and sociology to offer a multidisciplinary perspective, addressing controversies like deaccessioning and algorithmic bias. The book aims to guide museum professionals in responsible technology implementation, ensuring cultural heritage is preserved and accessible for future generations.
