THEN has initiated an annotated bibliography project. The Annotated Bibliography is a searchable database of heritage education references for professionals as well as a listing of resources for educators and the general public. The Annotated Bibliography contains books, journals, magazines, newsletters, classroom materials, videos, blogs, and websites.
While accessible and usable by members and nonmembers, only members of THEN may contribute to the Annotated Bibliography. If you would like to contribute, please join THEN under the appropriate membership category. The resource entry form is located in the Members Only section of the website. If you find an error on any of the entries, please contact us.

1996     Archaeology’s Public: A Perspective From Two Canadian Museums. 20: 29-23, Canadian Archaeological Association
The article explores the audience for archaeological exhibits at the Royal Ontario Museum and the University of British Columbia Museum of Anthropology through visitor surveys.
