[January 12, 2015]  SPRINGFIELD - Statement on recommendations from panel studying governance of Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum

Statement of Sunny Fischer, Chair
Illinois Historic Preservation Agency Board of Trustees

“I am extremely grateful to the members of the Study Panel for their hard work on a topic that is both complex and important.

“We needed guidance from an independent group of experts on library and museum operations, and now we have it. The panel’s unanimous findings deserve serious consideration from anyone seeking to make the most of Illinois’ wonderful historic resources, particularly the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum.

“The Board of Trustees will read the report carefully, discuss it at our next meeting and report to the governor. We trust that he and the General Assembly will pay close attention to the findings before considering any legislative options.”

[Chris Wills, Illinois Historic Preservation Agency]
