FOREWORD This study on the Bishop Museum was prepared in response to Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 56, adopted during the 1987 legislative session. Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 56 requested that the Bureau study the feasibility of designating the Bishop Museum as the State Museum for Natural and Cultural History with an annual line item appropriation for the operation of the Museum, and to consider state acquisition of Museum real estate properties that are of cultural and historic significance to the State. The study primarily focusses on the question of state funding to the Museum. We extend our sincere appreciation to Bishop Museum staff and administration for their gracious cooperation and assistance throughout the course of this study. We also wish to acknowledge administrators of Hawaii state departments and agencies, and state agencies, museum organizations, and museums around the nation who responded thoughtfully to our questionnaires and provided us with valuable information and help. January 1988 SAMUEL 8. K. CHANG Director
