I am looking for information on how to conduct/develop a long range plan for the Historic Orient-Santa Fe Railway Museum. Are there any articles or publications that might address the process.

Many thanks!

Not to be nasty, but plan for what? What are your objectives? A plan is a comprehensive and systematic approach to acheiving certain ends. Depending on the issue, there's different resources out there.

You could be planning long term strategic goals-but that doesn't mean ignoring short term operational issues. You could be planning for funding, organization, etc.

I hate to quote Microsoft's old tagline, but where do you want to go today?
