Rodger -- Beverly Serrell's book *is* excellent, and off-hand I can recommend none finer. The Brooklyn Children's Museum published "Doing It Right: A Workbook for Improving Exhibit Labels," which is useful in setting up a label system. This was available through AAM. The Minnesota Institute of Arts published a style guide, specifically for art museums, but which may have broader applicability. I believe this in only available by contacting the MIA directly. The Field Museum put together a style manual several years ago with the help of Judy Rand. Since it was written there has been almost complete turnover at The Field; I have a copy, and you can also contact Judy at [log in to unmask] The Shedd Aquarium is about to develop a style manual. I seem to recall the Science Museum of Minnesota published something in the Sourcebook of an AAM or MMC meeting. Other exhibit professionals can probably offer other suggestions.
