I know you asked for replies off-line to reading material about eco-museums
but I couldn't help putting in a plug for a publication from my office.  It
is the English translation of "Claims and Realities of the New Museology:
Case Studies in Canada, the United States and Mexico," written by Andrea
Hauenschild, Ph.D.
