Our paper analyses the patterns of collaboration between museums and
other institutions. Through the analysis of co-authorship of scientific articles
by means of the social networks methodology we are able to determine
which institutions and regions are the most collaborative with museums. The
bibliometric approach allows us to differentiate when cooperation depends
on the symbolic, analytical or synthetic knowledge bases. For bibliometric
analysis we used the Elsevier’s Scopus database and the data were cleaned
and prepared using three software: VantagePoint, WordStat and QDMiner.
Matrixes were elaborated depending on: a) papers were written by the
museum in its own or b) papers were co-authored between a museum
and: other mu-seums (symbolic knowledge), restorations and conservation
institutes (symbolic), physics and chemistry departments in universities
(analytical), and engineering and Information Technologies departments
in universities (synthetic). Moreover, institu-tions were defined depending
on their geographical location: Europe, USA & Canada, Central & South
America, Asia, Africa, Oceania. The museums analysed were 94, being 26
