IPS Ad Hoc Committee:

Planetarium Development Committee

Function: To draw up recommendations from IPS members on the subject of building a new planetarium or renovating an old one, with the guidelines intended for architects, museum directors, college and school system administrators, and others without much planetarium experience.

The committee produced the booklet "So You Want to Build A Planetarium" which offers a brief overview and a list of questions to consider in embarking on a new planetarium enterprise. The committee expects to rouse itself again soon to prepare a longer, more detailed guidebook and to publicize the shorter booklet to its intended audience.
