We at the New Brunswick Musuem are reviewing our Loan Policy, and I wonder
if I could ask for some input from the group.  I have been hearing recently
about "loan fees".  We have never charged a fee for loans to other
institutions.  The borrowing institutions usually pay for shipping, crating,
insurance etc.  Do other institutions charge a loan fee and if so how do you
arrive at a price?

I would appreciate any comments or suggestions, and if anyone has a Loan
Policy they would be willing to share that would be great.
