The Society of American Archivists has a Museum Section, which I have
recently joined. SAA publishes a good series of introductory
guidebooks, one of which concerns museum archives. While this is
from an archival perspective rather than a registrarial one, it
discusses some of the same issues - provenance, conservation records
for artifacts, etc.
They're in Chicago, & I'm not at my desk at this moment. You
might call Chicago Directory Assistance [or they're probably in the
AAM Official Museum Directory as an affiliated organization].
