Wendy: You might try sending a copy of the book to Liz Holcomb, the
Bookstore Manager at the American Association of Museums, 1225 Eye St. NW,
Washington, DC 20005. AAM carries about 225 titles on all aspects of
museums, including several titles on volunteering. We print a Spring and
Fall catalogue each year, and advertise titles regularly in Aviso, the AAM
monthly newsletter, and Museum News, the bimonthly magazione. Liz will let
you know if your friend's book is one that we'd like to offer to members.
