Does your Museum run your community's Visitor Information Centre?  Or, =
does your Museum coexist in the same facility as your Visitor =
Information Centre?  I am conducting some research on these two =
questions and am interested in hearing back from the listserv.

I know that some discussion on this topic took place in November 2006 on =
CANMUSE-L, but hearing more would be very interesting.  It seems that =
community museums may be leading the way in this relationship with =
tourism.

The BCMA has asked that replys to these two questions be posted to the =
listserv as this tourism topic may be of interest to a few of us.  =
Please let us know about your situation plus the pros and cons of such =
an arrangement.
