The book Starting Right-A Basic Guide to Museum Planning by Gerald George, is a good resource.  I'd be very interested in other on-line resources.

Hello,
 
Does anyone know if there is a good online resource/reference on "how to" start a new museum -- something like a set of standards or "best of practice" when creating a new museum in the US?
 
Thanks,
Kurt Stuchell
