Museum Day is Saturday, September 26

Smithsonian Magazine's annual Museum Day is September 26. Participating museums are listed on the Smithsonian's website where you can also download your Museum Day pass.

If you can't venture out Saturday but plan to spend some time this fall exploring small towns, consider stopping at the local history museum. Review the Official Museum Directory 2009 (708.025 OFF) in the library's reference section first to help you create your itinerary. Published by National Register Publishing in cooperation with the American Association of Museums, this resource features an alpha listing of institutions by city and state. Look at this directory and you may be surprised to find out what you've missed during your weekend travels!
