How the 15 mile rule works in Oklahoma
NARM does not apply within 15 miles of the institution where you hold your membership, and in a state this shape that matters differently depending on where you joined.
- National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum members lose 3 of the other 16 places in the state to the exclusion, and keep 13.
- Oklahoma Historical Society | Oklahoma Territorial Museum and Carnegie Library members keep all 16 of the other places in the state, because nothing else on the list falls inside the radius.
- Oklahoma Historical Society | Fort Towson Historic Site members keep all 16 of the other places in the state, because nothing else on the list falls inside the radius.
Planning a trip around Oklahoma
Oklahoma City is the busiest single base: 5 of the 17 are within 25 miles of it, so one day out covers 29% of the state list. Another 8 sit more than 100 miles away, and the list spans about 186 miles end to end, so the rest is a second trip rather than a detour.
