We've been struggling with this decision, leaning on the side of not allowing it. Thank you for posting these reasons.
Very often the response to someone else's question answers my question before I post it. Thanks to all of you who answer on-list.

Hi!
I museum I
interned at created a policy just as vaping was becoming a
thing. In short, it was forbidden. Vaping was allowed
outside on the grounds because it doesn't have the
potential for litter like cigarettes do. However, if it
were a museum where the grounds were a big attraction and
lots of people would be around, I believe it would have been
disallowed (ie an outdoor museum or museum
complex).
The reasons
included:
1. It is
moisture, I wouldn't let someone walk around with a
humidifier.2. It smells even though it isn't
as bad as cigarette smell. The smell can linger and can
interrupt other visitors. (I don't want to be walking
and suddenly a walk into a big cloud of banana smelling
vapor.)
Hope this
helps!

Does
anyone have policies on vaping in the museum (by staff
and/or visitors)? What are the reasons for allowing/not
allowing it? Any advice would be appreciated!
