Due to the success of the Lee County conference, the conference was expanded north to encompass the Illinois-Wisconsin stateline area and renamed the Stateline Small Museums Conferences. -- Krista Barry *SSMC Committee Member* ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
