Lisa,
 
You might try the following title (particularly Ch. 7: "Exhibition Policy
and planning") which outlines the various roles in exhibition planning and
development:
 
Belcher, Michael. "Exhibitions in Museums." Leicester and London: Leicester
University Press; Washington, D.C.: Smithsonian Institution Press, 1991.
ISBN 0-7185-1299-5
 
Also on the exhibition team and planning:
 
De Borhegyi, Suzanne, "Museum Brainstorming: A Creative Approach to Exhibit
Planning," Curator 21/3, 1978, pp. 212-224.
 
Hartman, Thomas, "From Genesis Through Form: Processes Involved in Exhibit
Implementation," Western Museums Conference Newsletter no.2, 1988, 4-5.
 
Klein, Larry, "Team Players," Museum News 3/4, 1991, pp.44-45.
 
Royal Ontario Museum, "Communicating with the Museum Visitor: Guidelines
for Planning," 1976.
 
I have found the Royal Ontario Museum piece particularly helpful on delineat-
ing responsibilities in exhibition development.
 
I hope this helps.
 
With every good wish,
 
Steven
