La réserve muséale de la capitale nationale a vu le jour. Le présent ouvrage rappelle les analyses et les stratégies qui ont soutenu le vaste chantier de la nouvelle réserve, et décrit une partie des gestes qui ont favorisé le déménagement et l'aménagement des collections dans ses nouveaux espaces, hautement performants et sécuritaires. Les images témoignent de l'ampleur et de la spécificité de ces nouveaux espaces comme des soins dont ont été entourés les artefacts des collections nationales pendant leur transport. Inspirée et conseillée par les diverses institutions et les collègues qu'elle a consultés pour éclairer ses gestes, et reconnaissante envers ceux-ci, l'équipe de réalisation de la nouvelle réserve rend publique, dans ces pages, sa propre expérience alors qu'elle se sent envahie par la satisfaction de l'ouvrage accompli et réussi.
We in the Ulysses offices think we have it hard when deadlines are approaching, those maps still don't quite fit and the sidewalk cafes and bars of St. Denis Street here in Montreal beckon on warm summer evenings. But our desk-bound troubles are minuscule compared to the harried experiences our authors endure creating the "most cultural how-to travel guides" available: wading through crowds of revelers in Chicago after the Bulls Championship win, dodging chickens and dogs on Nicaraguan highways, getting mugged in Nassau and Lisbon, or being stranded by a train derailment in Saskatchewan. Then again, these adventurers are part of the joy of traveling, of getting to the heart of a destination ... The long-awaited second edition of the only practical guidebook to cover all regions of Quebec is finally here. Still more sights and thousands of practical addresses for every region. Travelers will also find an augmented outdoor activities section, more maps, brilliant color photos and illustrations.
