Over 340 books, articles, manuals, newsletters, and other publications concerning the development and operation of historic sites are listed. Most cited materials were published since 1972 and are arranged under four major categories: site development and planning, documentation and preservation of structures and objects, interpretation of historic sites to visitors, and visitor and support services. Other citations are listed under the headings of professional standards and practice, management and financial planning, and other bibliographies. Under each heading, materials are listed alphabetically by author or name of organization. A section on organizations is also included which contains information on addresses, purposes, and types of publications. A final section outlines legislation affecting historic sites and other museums. Legislation is listed alphabetically by short title and references to the document in which the law is found are included. (KC)
