I am currently looking at the efficacy of different deterrent methods
for reducing the amount of unwanted touching of objects on display by
visitors, e.g. ropes, signs, plinths. I have found research around the
subject, such as the effect of the museum environment on visitor
enjoyment and learning, and balancing access with preservation.
Has anyone undergone or come across research on how well different
deterrent methods work (published or not)?
Many thanks
