I am in the process of researching guides to museums in foreign languages
aimed at tourists and other similar casual visitors, with the aim to
developing something along these lines for the Powerhouse Museum in Sydney.

I would like to hear from anyone who produces anything along these lines.
In particular:

do you use cheap and cheerful 'free' guides?
and/or sell better quality productions as guides and souvenirs?
what sort of information do you provide beyond directions around the
building?
which language groups make most use of these sort of guides?

Thanks
