We began by giving everyone a Temporary Custody Receipt which clearly indicates that the objects are unconditional donations and signed by the donor. However, our backlog means that the Deed of Gifts may not have gone out until 3-6 months after the gift arrived and we have problems with returns. One of my volunteers suggested that we have the donors sign the Deed of Gift (but not a museum staff member) whenever somebody drops off the object to solve the return problem. We would then send the Deed, signed by us, only when we accept the object. From the requirements described by Janice Klein, it sounds like as long as the Museum does not acknowledge the gift by signing the Deed, the intent to accept is not legally binding. My argument to her was that if we decide not to accept the item, people will be surprised and hurt if we call them to take their objects back. I suggested that it was a matter of reputation and the impression we give to donors. Are there any other arguments I should be making?

I hope this is a useful addition to the discussion. Martha Katz-Hyman ******************************* Hi Martha, =20 There were certainly enough horses in the United States to provide a thriving hide and hair business in the nineteenth century. According to the census, by 1890, the North Central states alone had over 9 1/4 million horses, mules and asses. Add nearly 2 million from North Atlantic, 1 1/4 from the South Atlantic, nearly 3 1/2 million from the South Central states, and 1 1/2 million from the Western states, and you had about 17 1/2 million horses in the country. There were proportionately fewer in previous decades, but it was a steady growth to 1890, roughly doubling from decade to decade. =20 I disagree with the commentator who suggested horses lived only about 10 years in the 19th century. That age is roughly accurate for the average lifetime of working oxen, but horses lived a much longer life. Oxen were butchered and eaten and turned into cowhide. Horses were mostly slaughtered and turned into horse hide only, a much less profitable use than meat and hide. =20 Regards, =20 Tom Woods =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .

Past Perfect has a form for temporary custody, which makes this very easy. You can print off blank forms and leave them at your admissions area. It has a place to check that it is an unconditional donation, etc. as well as contact info. and a signature. However, donors should be very strongly discouraged from leaving things without speaking with someone in collections - that's how we end up getting stuff from the 20th century left when we're a 19th century museum! Very annoying. In any case, Past Perfect's form is helpful to use. Sabrina Henneman Registrar Genesee Country Village & Museum www.gcv.org -----Original Message----- From: Lucy Sperlin [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2005 11:32 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [MUSEUM-L] Returning Deed of Gifts Sabrina, you're right. I've had that happen. Heirs often think that they can claim things their parents or grandparents "left at the museum" long ago, so you do need to have some proof of legal ownership. The older the collection, the more likely you will have to field such requests from later generations. From a long ago seminar on legal aspects of museum work, I learned that a good way to back up that nicely typed Deed of Gift which makes the donor feel that you have made much of his gift, is to have the donor sign a Gift Receipt when the donation is brought in. It would be the paper on which you get the donors address and information about the item(s) when the donation comes in, often, especially with large groups of items, prior to making a decision about actually accessioning into the collection. That way, if the donor doesn't return the typed DOG, (as someone pointed out most return it the first try, more on the second, but a few never do) you still have a signature stating that it was given to the museum as an unrestricted donation. The Gift Receipt is usually hand written and sometimes messy as you have made notes by listed items, adding in the information they give you about where, how and by whom the item was used, etc., so it is still an important PR thing to send the nice looking Deed of Gift document for your (and their) permanent records. The Gift Receipt should also record their preference about disposition ("dispose of as museum sees fit", etc.)in case the museum decides not to take all the offered items and gives you a clear record of accountability should you be unable to get them to return to pick up non-accessioned items.

I'd think that without a deed of gift, which is really a legal document, that a donor or other family members could easily come back and say that the museum was wrong- it was a loan, not a gift, etc. and that just because we have a letter from the museum saying it's a gift doesn't prove their intent...and so forth. I guess I'll have to take a look at the RCAAM-L archive.

Amanda Dyer Curator Bell County Museum -----Original Message----- From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Janice Klein Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2005 10:27 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: Returning Deed of Gifts This topic has been much discussed on the Registrars listserv (RCAAM-L). A Deed of Gift is not a legal requirement, it is "only" museum policy/procedure. For a gift to be legally valid three things need to happen: 1. an offer needs to be made 2. the offer needs to be accepted 3. the object needs to be physical transfered to you If you have all three of those things, the object is legally yours. The Deed is a Nice Thing to pull all three of these together, but it is not required. If you have a piece of paper (even a temporary receipt) that says the object was offered as a gift, a letter thanking the donor for the gift and the object itself, you have all that the law requires. Having said that, I usually don't send out the IRS 8283 Form until I have a signed Deed. But if the donor doesn't want the IRS form and doesn't send back the Deed, I don't bug them. janice Janice Klein Director, Mitchell Museum of the American Indian [log in to unmask] www.mitchellmuseum.org -----Original Message----- From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of [log in to unmask] Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2005 10:06 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Returning Deed of Gifts I sometimes have a hard time of donors returning Deed of Gifts.

I used to send the second copy of the Deed of Gift as "return receipt". Then the little green post card was proof the donor got my letter. Often this gave my letter enough perceived importance that the donor signed and sent back the D-o-G. I also used a carefully worded deposit receipt for items brought in to the museum. It gave us the right to dispose of items after a period of time past notifing the donor we didn't intend to accept their object. Potential donors were asked provenance questions as well and completed an information form. For most donors (local history museum) this helped them understand that we were just as interested in the story associated with the object as the object itself. I co-authored a technical leaflet for the Illinois Heritage Association (TECH. INSERT 101 (Sept.-Oct. 1999): "Documenting Collections," by Diane Gutenkauf, Sally DeFauw, and Steph McGrath.) that can be purchased from them at: http://illinoisheritage.prairienet.org/tilista.html Hope this helps.

Our last database did not organize the records by accession number or object ID but by a key # that was assigned automatically when the records were created. I am currently in the process of changing this system and have been assigning object id #'s based on the type of material. Posters, Maps, and Moving Images in our collection are organized based on a classification system so I use the classification number and the original key number. Our object collection is of course in the same predicament as you all and is almost entirely accessioned while the archive collection does not have enough documentation. It's hard to try to start from scratch and it seems as though each Museum needs to figure out what works best for their collection.

We have just been given a hand drawn and painted family tree, matted and framed. A member of this family built our historic house, the Hezekiah Alexander House, in 1774, so this is not just a random piece of art, it has local historical and genealogical significance. Although a number of the names are misspelled. My question is, what do you call this when Nomenclature does not admit the existence of family tree, genealogical chart, or anything else I have been able to shoehorn this thing into?

I hope I can be helpful to others in the future as they have been with me this week. Our small museum has decided that we can no longer afford to supply all things to all people for free. We want to institute some fees for services, especially for reproductions of images we own. We have supplied pictures to local restaurants in the past and to local authors, but feel this needs to change. What do other museums charge of such things as use of a picture, scanning charges (if done in-house), handling, finding, etc.? We were thinking in terms of perhaps $3.50 usage fee for each picture and we would take it to be reproduced ourselves and then get it back to the researcher--mail it, or they can pick it up. But we also are considering buying a scanner. What fees are charged for such services?

Stephen Van Buren, C.A. UNIVERSITY Archivist and Special Collections Librarian BL241/Box 2115 North Campus Drive Brookings, SD 57007 605-688-4906 -----Original Message----- From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Martha Katz-Hyman Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 9:18 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: horse hair I posted this question to the ALHFAM (Association of Living History, Farm and Agricultural Museums) yesterday, figuring that many of my friends who work at farm and agricultural museums might have an answer, and got the following from Tom Woods, who used to be at Old World Wisconsin and is now the principal of Making Sense of Place. I hope this is a useful addition to the discussion. Martha Katz-Hyman ******************************* Hi Martha, =20 There were certainly enough horses in the United States to provide a thriving hide and hair business in the nineteenth century. According to the census, by 1890, the North Central states alone had over 9 1/4 million horses, mules and asses. Add nearly 2 million from North Atlantic, 1 1/4 from the South Atlantic, nearly 3 1/2 million from the South Central states, and 1 1/2 million from the Western states, and you had about 17 1/2 million horses in the country. There were proportionately fewer in previous decades, but it was a steady growth to 1890, roughly doubling from decade to decade. =20 I disagree with the commentator who suggested horses lived only about 10 years in the 19th century. That age is roughly accurate for the average lifetime of working oxen, but horses lived a much longer life. Oxen were butchered and eaten and turned into cowhide. Horses were mostly slaughtered and turned into horse hide only, a much less profitable use than meat and hide. =20 Regards, =20 Tom Woods =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .

This helps defray the cost of delivering the photos to the shop and picking them up. The images remain in our hands at all times. Many photo shops are going out of business due to the digital revolution. We just had to find a new shop and I had to work out the new price as they charge a $3 scanning fee. Our new rates are $9 for one 5" x 7" copy, $6 for each copy of the same image thereafter; and $15 for one 8" x 10" copy, $12 for each copy of the same image thereafter (they cost us $3 and $6 respectively). We keep the CD with the digital images in our collection, but we will make them a copy if they provide us with a CD-R. The researcher may then reproduce the image(s) in their work with the acknowledgment, "Photo courtesy of..." Hope that helps, Craig Anthony, Registrar The Pettaquamscutt Historical Society, Inc.
