*****************************************************************************

I am looking for resources on safety in museum classroom settings. I have
read many manuals and attended seminars where safety in a regular classroom
is discussed, however these sources always assume that you have a long term,
ongoing relationship with the students. I am looking for guidelines and
advice more tailored to a museum situation in which you don't know the
students before they enter the room and the relationship might be as short
as one hour or at the most a week. Does anyone know of sources or guidelines
for this unique situation? How do others limit their liability in this
situation?

Any help given would be greatly appreciated.
