Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Comprehensive Collections Policy

 

The Historical Society that I work for is currently revising our collections policy.  Our current policy has information regarding the accession, deaccession, loans of objects, etc.  The current policy reflects our museum and archival collections, but we also have a library collection, oral history collection and folklife collections that we want to include in the new policy.  Does anybody have a good example of a collections policy that incorporates a variety of collections like this? 

Thanks
Deb Rose Van Horn
