Ind. Gov't. - More on: Indiana proposal among finalists for Lincoln Museum

Updating this entry from yesterday, today, today Angela Mapes Turner of the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette writes that:

The final round of contenders to receive the collection of the former Lincoln Museum includes an Indiana group, but the keepers of the artifacts will not say how much the field has narrowed.

The Allen County Public Library and the Indiana State Museum submitted a proposal to share the collection and keep it in Indiana. The coalition also included support of the Indiana Historical Society, Indiana State Library and Friends of the Lincoln Museum. * * *

Spokeswoman Annette Moser said Wednesday afternoon the foundation was informing those who submitted proposals whether they were finalists. She would not say which proposals were finalists or how many had been chosen, and she said the foundation would not release further information until it selects a new home for the collection late this year or in early 2009.
