2008/10/18姐姐與台大博物館 My Sister visited NTU Museum
國立臺灣大學為國內歷史最悠久的大學，由日治時期迄今已屆八十年。自1928年臺北帝國大學創校以來，為支援研究、教學所需，校內各系所單位於學術研究領域內，廣泛蒐集各式獨特珍貴且豐富的文獻史料、標本與藏品，並設立標本/文物陳列等館室進行蒐集典藏，為本校不可忽視的珍貴寶庫及資產。然長期以來受人力、物力、空間與經費等限制，難以建置良好的典藏展示環境，亦無餘力善用珍貴藏品，於教學研究外進一步對社會作更有效的教育及推廣。這些經由歷史歲月累積而來之珍藏，若未能妥善整理保存、推廣利用，不僅是本校學術資源之損失，對整個社會國家的自然、文化、學術資產之歷史見證，更是難以彌補的傷害。 2005年10月，李嗣涔校長責成圖書館項潔館長邀集各相關館室，就校內博物館資源之運用與整合方向進行規劃研議，歷經年餘的密集協商討論凝聚共識，於2007年2月於圖書館主導下提出《臺大博物館群合作發展計畫書》，建議於現有資源與條件下，先期以臺大博物館「群」的合作發展模式進行資源整合，希能獲得校方支持以改善各館室整體典藏、展示、推廣環境，並期在既有支援研究教學功能外，進而發揮社會服務與教育功能，以塑造臺大新社會形象。同年3月20日該計畫獲校長批准，各館陸續積極進行軟硬體改善工作；11月15日本校校慶當日，「臺大博物館群」(NTU Museums)由李校長正式宣布敲鑼啟動。 現階段臺大博物館群成員館計有十處，分別為：臺大校史館、人類學系標本陳列室、地質標本館、物理文物廳、昆蟲標本室、臺大農業陳列館、植物標本館、動物博物館、檔案展示室及醫學人文博物館等館室。由圖書館主導整合，並設有「臺大博物館群辦公室」，負責執行合作發展業務之規劃、運作、協調、共同事務之處理與對外形象經營等相關事宜；而各成員館內部館務營運與發展，則維持原有運作機制與特色，充分享有主導權。 分散於校園各處的臺大博物館群成員館，除仍與原所屬系所學術教研活動緊密聯繫外，並形成與校園空間高度結合的博物館聚落。突破傳統博物館單一建築物展示空間限制，將藏品與系所教學、研究環境及校園歷史脈絡相連結，形成臺大博物館群所獨有之特色。今後，此博物館群聚落將更廣泛延伸觸角，向週邊社區民眾與社會大眾熱情展開雙臂，讓更多人感受臺大博物藏品的知性之美。
Chartered during the Japanese colonial period in Taiwan, the National Taiwan University (NTU) has nearly 80 years of history with a rich academic legacy. Many unique and prestigious materials, specimens, and documents have been collected for teaching and research purposes since the establishment of the university in 1928. Collections include artifacts of the Taiwanese indigenous people and prehistory archeological sites, including samples of minerals/rocks/fossils, specimens of animals/plants/insects, and laboratory apparatuses and instruments. However, because of restricted budget and limited resources such as space and manpower, collections are only maintained by minimum preservation equipment, not for the purpose of further systematic exhibition and extension education. These precious collections have marked the great development of Taiwans higher education. If these collections are not properly stored, managed, or utilized, it would be a great loss for both the National Taiwan University and the whole Taiwanese society in the fields of natural, cultural, and academic legacy.
In October 2005, Si-Chen Lee, the president of National Taiwan University (NTU), assigned a task force led by the University Librarian, Jieh Hsiang, to integrate individual university museums. The NTU Museums Cooperation and Development Plan was thus proposed in February 2007 to promote NTU Museums image, support research, carry out educational functions, and to provide tour guide services. This plan also aims to assist individual museums to seek financial support for the renewal and refurbishment of collections and the restoration of exhibition facilities. NTU hopes to fulfill its social and educational function and responsibility if the NTU museums, with its rich collections, are to be opened to the local community and the general public. On March 20, 2007, the president of NTU officially approved of this plan and allocated the funds. On the anniversary of the university this year (November 15, 2007), the NTU Museums were inaugurated and a special exhibition was held at the Chuan-Lyu Exhibition Hall in the Gallery of NTU History.
