Book excerpt: Small Western Montana museums have three chronic problems: isolation, lack of professional training, and limited resources. The two goals of this project were to address these problems by providing regional "cluster" support and to serve as a model for the replication of these clusters across the state. Six objectives for the nine month project were outlined: (1) establish communication among Western Montana museums, (2) establish a working relationship between museums and university faculty, (3) survey museums' resources to facilitate cooperation, (4) train museum personnel in museum management, (5) establish a regional resource center, and (6) increase awareness of the region's heritage through more professional programming.
