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

Can anybody recommend a recent article/publication that succinctly summarizes the science center field - past, present, and predictions on the future?  And any thoughts out there on where you personally think the field is going concerning exhibits, programs, structure, leadership, relevance, role in society?

All responses are already appreciated.
