General Principles of a Museum (Museum Formation) Establishment at a Military Educational Institution

The purpose of the article is to systematize and streamline the current legislation to simplify the algorithm for collecting and compiling a package of documents in order to establish and register a museum (museum formation) at a military educational institution. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that an attempt has been made to systematize and streamline the process of forming museum formation, as well as to harmonize and generalize the current legislative requirements for this process. Conclusions. A study of the legislation and regulatory framework for the establishment, operation and registration of museums at military educational institutions showed a complex and confusing system of regulatory legal acts, often requiring duplication of certain actions, and sometimes mutually exclusive, which complicates the procedure for creating a museum at a military educational institution. Systematization of regulatory requirements, structuring them in the order of implementation, as well as the classification and inventory of the collection items directly requires a specialist with the appropriate professional skills, abilities and motivation, otherwise, the assembly remains in the status of a storage.
