Mike, in addition to the suggestions already made (ALI-ABA and National
Archaeological Database), here are some titles which may help with your
inquiry about repatriation and other aspects of collections law:
 
Tabah, Agnes.  Native American Collections and Repatriation.
Washington:  American Association of Museums, c1993.
 
Greenfield, Jeanette.  The Return of Cultural Treasures.  Cambridge:
Cambridge University Press, 1989.
 
Malaro, Marie C.  A Legal Primer on Managing Museum Collections.
Washington:  Smithsonian Institution Press, 1985.
 
Messenger, Phyllis Mauch, ed.  Ethics of Collecting Cultural Property:
Whose Culture?  Whose Property?  Albuquerque:  University of New Mexico
Press, c1989.
 
Price, H. Marcus III.  Disputing the Dead:  U.S. Law on Aboriginal
Remains and Grave Goods.  Columbia, MO:  University of Missouri Press,
c1991.
 
There are also various "code of ethics" documents which relate to the
bases of collections law.
 
Hope this is of use.
