Dear Melissa,

The International Council of Museums has published a number of its bulletin
'ICOM News' on 'Museums and Young People'. It is available on PDF at
http://icom.museum/young_people_eng.html

I hope some of the articles might be helpful.

Thank you,
Carla Bonomi
ICOM Webmaster

Subject: Young Professional Groups

> I've done some looking into other museum's programs and have

> Is it primarily staff run or run by a committee of the members?
> I have a lot more questions than just these, but right now I'm
