Dear Museum-L folks,

I am researching the relationship between historic
house museums and the Americans with Disabilities Act
and would appreciate your advice.  I have found
excellent sources for the text of the act and
interpretation of it, and how museums in general have
adapted within their means to assist those with
mobility, visual, hearing and mental/emotional
impairments.

However, its been very difficult to find recent
(especially since 1996) references specifically
pertaining to historic homes.  I have tried all of the
standard electronic databases (for periodicals, books
and web sites), but feel like there must be something
I'm missing.  If you could recommend a recent source
that discusses case studies or criteria to consider, I
would greatly appreciate it.

Please respond to me personally (off-list); I'm happy
to forward the responses to the list if anyone would
like.

Thank you,
Rebecca Nemeth
