Another source for museum accessibility info is the National Park Service's
media group, Harpers Ferry Center:

In  addition to exhibit structures, there are also guidelines for a couple
other formats.

Subject: Museum pedestals and that ADA

Hello,

At a meeting this morning we were discussing designing new pedestals and
the question was raised if there are any ADA guidelines for pedestals.  If
anyone has any information on this, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.
