The Science Museum of Minnesota's guide entitled "Moving the Mountain." You can download it free from the link below. It covers a museum move from the planning and grant writing stage through every bump and turn they took in moving their very large collection. Some of it wasn't applicable to our limited budget / short timeline situation but in general, it's written with humour and sound advice. They also used lots of volunteers in their move (which is sometimes unusual for big museums) but obviously the MMBC heavily relied on volunteers - we could not have accomplished this major task without them!!! <br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460399744079_211566"><br></div><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460399744079_211560"><a id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460399744079_211572" class="enhancr2_fcb56ff1-e9b7-d32a-b1cb-62c15c382b3f" href="https://www.smm.org/collections/moving">Moving the Museum</a><br></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460399744079_212162"><br></div><div id="enhancr2_fcb56ff1-e9b7-d32a-b1cb-62c15c382b3f" class="yahoo-link-enhancr-card ymail-preserve-class ymail-preserve-style" style="max-width:400px;font-family:'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;" data-url="https://www.smm.org/collections/moving" data-type="yenhancr" data-category="article" data-embed-url="" data-size="medium" dir="ltr" contenteditable="false"> <a id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1460399744079_211592" href="https://www.smm.org/collections/moving" style="text-decoration:none !important;
