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

Liz Nash asks, "... what do your members feel are what make joining a museum
a good
use of their finite dispensible income? ..."

These are all great questions. While it certainly is useful to know about
the practices of other museums and their members' preferences, it will be
most valuable to know YOUR members' answers to these questions. Why not
survey your members to find out what they most value about your program and
maybe even what benefits they never use and don't care about. Preferences
will vary from one community to another -- and from one giving level to
another. What is more, members typically appreciate your asking for their
input, especially if they see results.
