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

One of the best things for me that came out of the ASTC Conference  
that just ended in LA was the interest in sharing exhibit ideas (both  
existing ideas and "works in progress") with each other in a more  
formalized way than the ISEN-ASTC Listserv, and in a way that creates  
an ongoing database that people will be able to continue to refer to,  
and benefit from.

The trick is how to make this happen? Is there an existing site or  
structure on the Web (like ExhibitFiles.org, for instance)
that we can utilize to make this happen?  I'd be willing to start a  
new blog or website to help make this happen, but I'd rather build  
upon an existing resource, if a suitable one exists.

Naturally, as the editor of ASTC's Exhibit Cheapbooks, I'm very  
interested in helping create additional forums for sharing
amongst museum colleagues, so please contact me either on or off list  
to keep the momentum that started in LA going.
