Description:

The consensus of the panel is that New England's historical societies need to minimize costs through greater support from memberships, professional historians, patriotic societies, governments, and regional cooperation. One participant explains how the Vermont Historical Society achieved significant gains in membership, financial support and facilities since 1966. Another participant discusses such problems of collections development as competition, finances, and facilities, in relation to the overall fiscal situation. This article contains an edited, partial manuscript; panelists included: Albert T. Klyberg, Rhode Island Historical Society; Thomas W. Leavitt, director, Merrimack Valley Textile Museum; Bertram K. Little (moderator), member of the Board of Overseers of Strawberry Banke; Charles T. Morrissey, director, Vermont Historical Society; and Andrew Oliver, President, Essex Institute.
