My staff is questioning the past practice in our museum of making copies of original documents that people do not want to donate. I think that the copies should simply be put into informational research (vertical) files. Others think that we need to accession them as the originals may never come to the museum. Anyone have thoughts on this, or how does your institution do this?? ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
