Don't overlook two great resources right in your backyard. The American
Association of Museums (in D.C.)provides a wealth of this type of
information to its members: www.aam-us.org
Also contact the MidAtlantic Association of Museums, your regional museum
association headquartered in Baltimore, for sample policies and
assistance: www.midatlanticmuseums.org
Good luck
