I have found AMIEN (Art Materials Information and Education Network)
to be very helpful in the past, but now I'm not able to find it
online. Their former domain, <URL:http://www.amien.org> now seems to
be a site about e-cigarettes.  The founder Mark Gottsegen died last
year, sadly, so perhaps the site and forum have disappeared.  I hope
you'll get some other good suggestions, because I would like to know
too.
