Keep Here are some sources in Arabic: (translated w Google Translate) and one more source in English. The museum's official website looks pretty official FWIW. Calliopejen1 (talk) 17:23, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Per the ghits found by Himalayan and Calliopejen1. Warrah (talk) 17:33, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Besides the sources listed here, its also mentioned in the book Tourism in the Middle East: continuity, change, and transformation (2007) . The English-language Lebanese newspaper The Daily Star discusses it (Bsous museum highlights Lebanon's history as major silk producer). So too does the "BestinLebanon" tourism site . These sources were found after a five minute google search. Perhaps the nominator might have done a bit more homework before proposing deletion?  T i a m u t talk 18:32, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
