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

Bill, a good question about the economics....but the point is it doesn't
have to be expensive from either a capital or operational standpoint.
I think science centers can use them in a variety of ways - not the
least of which is to cover the humanities aspect of science, something I
see done rarely. What it boils down to, for me, is to improve the
context, to make the stories - whatever they are - more personal, more
accessible, more meaningful.
