Title: Evaluating Visitor Experience in the Citi Money Gallery at the British Museum
Sponsor: British Museum
Sponsor Liaison: Ben Alsop and Tom Hockenhull
Student Team: Alyssa Corini, Zeng (‘Arica’) Liu, William Moore, Scott Osborn
Abstract: The British Museum’s Citi Money Gallery underwent renovations in 2012. Using visitor tracking, questionnaires, and visitor counting, our study evaluates the effect of the changes on the visitor experience. iPads and foreign language questionnaires streamlined our sampling process and increased the size and demographics of the sample population, allowing for a substantially better understanding of visitor experience. Increased visitor engagement and satisfaction indicates that the renovations were effective.
