Another point and I don't know if it's been raised as I didn't review all the comments, is the trustee personal liability in this. That always makes them take notice! -----Original Message----- From: Museum discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Liz B Sent: Thursday, June 05, 2008 12:44 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [MUSEUM-L] Art Loans to Individuals? Thanks for all of the advice so far! Yes, we do have a collections policy that states "No loans to individuals". Unfortunately they seem to be overlooking the importance of following the policy that our museum executive board approved. I will definately bring up possible tax issues as well as the other suggestions in my next discussions with this group; I am not giving up this easily!
