Abstract

The history of the development of the stock work of museums in the Omsk region can be divided into two periods. The first one - until the end of the 1960s - was the time of the accumulation of objects and the formation of museum collections. The second is from the 1970s, when the processes of museum acquisition, storage, and accounting underwent qualitative changes, and the scientific study of collections began. Of particular interest is the study of those decades during which there were positive changes in the accounting and stock work of museums in the Omsk region. The sources for writing the article were the materials of the State Historical Archive of the Omsk region: reference and information materials provided by museums to higher authorities, text annual reports of museums. The development of scientific and stock work in the museums of the Omsk region is reflected in scientific publications devoted mainly to the modern “post-Soviet” period in its history, or is considered within the framework of broader topics. At the same time, the object of consideration was the private aspects of the scientific and stock work of a separate museum. The authors of the article set a goal: to present a holistic picture of the development of scientific and stock work in the framework of the transition stage in the museums of the Omsk region. The study was methodologically based on a systematic approach and viewed from a local perspective. The main issues of scientific and stock activity in the museums of the Omsk region in the 1960s-1980s are analyzed. During this period, there was a gradual transition to the scientific organization of funds. Purposeful work was carried out in the direction of improving the skills of accounting and stock work among the staff of museums, including rural ones. Museums have developed more advanced systems of accounting and storage of funds. Museum staff have developed and implemented their own methods of systematization and scientific description of objects and collections. When completing museum collections in the 1960s - late 1980s, the advantage was given to the collection of museum items on the history of the Soviet period. The museum collections have been significantly replenished. The area allocated for the storage of funds has increased.
