When deciding on the right graphical presentation system for museum design; exhibit developers have numerous alternatives including exhibit flipbooks.

Though not the chief method to showcase exhibit interpretive graphics and data; flipbooks are a viable choice that should be considered while in the exhibit design task. The term 'flipbook' isn't a frequently used phrase in exhibit design; even so, most designers have built or purchased a version of these kinds of products for featuring exhibit information and facts.

Interpretive flipbooks are analogous to the familiar three-ring binder widely used for school and business; however, they are created from extremely resilient materials including a reliable central binding system to retain pages. Most flipbooks usually lay open nearby or in the front of an exhibit. Pages are accessible to attendees and offer an easy interactive experience while the guests flip book pages and connect with the artwork and data provided.

Here are some strengths and weaknesses of flipbooks

POSITIVES

Flipbooks tend to be primarily useful when open space is restricted to showcase exhibit facts and where a basic guest interactive experience is desired. A flipbook containing 8" x 11" or 11" x 17" pages is capable of supporting several square feet of information while only using a two (2) square-foot footprint.

A suitably made flipbook made out of excellent components ought to provide strong resilience to handle tens of thousands of page turns without breaking.

NEGATIVES

Flipbooks don't possess a comparable long-range viewablity of ordinary mounted interpretive panels and require the museum visitor to manually flip book pages to be able to obtain exhibit information.

Additionally overlooked is that most flipbooks are not made to allow for pages to be easily switched if exhibit details needs to be updated.

To summarize, interpretive flipbooks are a necessary component of museum planning. There are many benefits associated with using flipbooks particularly when space is limited.

However, the museum flipbook construction must be properly thought out and manufactured with high quality components in order to enrich the end user experience.
