The next issue of Museum Identity magazine includes a special feature called 'Making the Modern Museum'.

So which museums would you include in your 'top 10' of the past ten years? And why? Any type of museum anywhere in the world. Only rules are they have to have been created or extensively redeveloped (so much so they are re-imagined) in the last ten years.

* La Cite Museum, Paris

Iain Watson, Assistant Director, Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums, suggested:

* Great North Museum

Danielle Sylvestre, Secretary for the board of administrators, La Providence de Contrecoeur Cooperative House, suggested:

* The Virtual Museum of Canada

Helen Monaghan, Education Officer, National Gallery of Ireland, suggested:

* The  National Museum of Australia in Canberra

"I'd have to add The National Museum of Australia in Canberra (2001), I loved how the different stories & experiences were woven together through the objects, and it was my first time seeing voices other than the curator successfully incorporated into the narrative without it being patronising or part of an 'outreach project'. I also admired the way they negotiated the controversy over the politicising of history in Australia and didn't back down (much!)"

Laura Whitton, Networks Officer at Collections Trust, suggested:

* Acropolis Museum

"I loved the New Acropolis museum. I think Tschumi did an amazing job with the site and anyone who had been in the previous Acropolis museum would be absolutely thrilled to see the objects in their new home this year"

Tony Butler, Director, Museum of East Anglian Life, suggested:

* The Zuider Zee Museum in Enkhuizen, Netherlands

"Open Air or Rural museums haven’t really competed with the innovation in design or programming of urban museums or galleries. The Zuider Zee Museum is an exception – an open air museum of historic buildings, though its really about the relationship between people and the land and sea. Historic buildings have been interpreted by contemporary artists and displays of art and design are celebrated as much as the more traditional social history stories. And visitors arrive by boat!"
