Dear Lauren

In November 2005, there was in Europe a major meeting about this subject;
you might want to take a look at:
http://europa.eu.int/comm/research/conferences/2005/cer2005/index_en.html

In 1996 there was another one from which result the book "Here and Now -
contemporary science and technology in museums and science centres." Edited
by Graham Farmelo and Janet Carding in 1997.

Hope it can be useful,
Ana Rita
