I've been to the Campbell Center and it's a great place, however I'm looking
for literature not classes. The Mount-Making for Museum Objects book had an
extensive bibliography and I was wondering if anyone out there had used any
of them and could give me a recommendation. I've been making mounts of one
sort or another going on 20 years, mostly self taught, and am looking to
upgrade my practices. Or, lets say the old dog is trying to learn some new
tricks!
Thanks again,
Jerry
