Dear Listers,
 
  I work for a museum in a large organization where we are often asked to care
for gifts that were given to our leaders.  Most of those gifts are in the form
of plaques or other commemorative items.  Because the intrinsic value of these
items is somewhat lacking, we do not wish  to acquire them into our collection
as we would acquire other artifacts.  I have been asked to write a policy that
would outline the life cycle of these items as well as how and when we would
dispose of them.  Do any of you have a policy for temporary items such as these?
 It would be very helpful for me to see how such a policy is worded and put
together.  
Thank you!
