ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

There are also a number of readings/references on the CILS website:
http://cils.exploratorium.edu/cils/ (look under resources)

I would also recommend informalscience.org, which is based out of Pitt and
affiliated with UPCLOSE (http://upclose.lrdc.pitt.edu/), who do some really
interesting work
http://www.informalscience.org/

And folks from the LIFE center at the Univ of Washington are also doing very
interesting work on learning in out-of-classroom settings (sorry, folks, if
I've labelled it incorrectly...)
http://life-slc.org/

I could go on, but I'll stop now...
