According to *Museums Count* (published results of 1988-89 data survey),
there are 8,179 museums in the U.S.

When IMS did a study of the needs of "small, minority, emerging and rural
museums" in 1991, they cast a wider net (i.e., they used a looser
definition) and came up with several thousand more museums.
