I am working on an article about museum-produced CD-Roms (exhibition
catalogs, educational titles, collection catalogs, etc.)  The article is
more about what it takes to publish in this relatively new medium.  But I
am eager to have a broad range of experiences represented.  Here is a list
of all of the products I have thus far heard about.  I'd love for people to
add to or correct it in any way.  Also, personal experiences would be very
welcome!
