Of major concern for the Acropolis Museum is the publishing of its activities and contributions. The Museum’s editions are generally multilingual and combine scientific validity with modern aesthetics. They include archaeological guides to the Museum, catalogues of temporary exhibitions and printed materials for activities organised within its premises, as well as minutes of scientific conferences. The publications are available in the Museum's shops and are distributed free of charge to the Greek Ephorates of Antiquities, museums, foreign archeological schools, universities, cultural institutions and other agencies, for the purpose of enriching their libraries.
