Jennifer - I will have Brigid Brink of my office send you copies of ethics policies from various university and college museums and galleries that deal with these subjects. These may be helpful,  although I don¹t rmember any of them going into detail. Ethics policies generally will not go into too much detail because they serve as guidebooks, IMHO (in my humble opinion). However, they will give some indication as to how museum and galleries have attempted to address the issue. I¹d like to obtain a copy of your paper when finished. Please keep in touch.
