Patricia Anne Moore or Stacey Otte: I know of two items which may assist
you in planning for your new exhibition areas -
Hilberry, John D. "Plan to Expand." Museum News (July/Aug 1990) 51-54.
Lord, Gail Dexter, and Barry Lord. "The Manual of Museum Planning."
London, HMSO, 1991. (Available from HMSO Publications Center, PO Box 276,
London, SW8 5DT; tel orders 071-873 9090).
Hope this helps! Good luck with your project. If you have any other
questions which we might be able to advise you on, please do not hesitate
to contact us.
