Subject: Loan fees
MIME-version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Hi everyone!
In recent discussions regarding a loan of ethnographic baskets to another
state museum, I was asked if we charge a loan fee. I was also told that
this is quite common. Is this true? In your experience, what does the fee
cover -- processing, documentation, packing, shipping? How much is
charged, and is it assessed per item? Does this apply equally to "public"
and private institutions (my vantage point is that of a state university
museum)?
I don't know if this is of general interest to the List; I can be reached
personally at <[log in to unmask]>. Many thanks, as always, for
your help! -- Pam

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain
While I find the crowds of "blockbuster" shows irritating now, I loved
the first one I ever saw, which was the King Tut in San Francisco. I
was in the fourth grade, and while I remember waiting in an interminable
line, I remember the objects inside much more vividly. (Perhaps the
crowd that day was inclined to let a little kid up to the front, I don't
know.) I was so fascinated that, once back at home, I read several
books about the exhibition and about the Egyptians. While it would
probably be fair to classify my experience as superficial, I still did
get quite a bit out of it. So these big shows sometimes can be a
positive experience.

We don't charge a "loan fee" but we do require that the borrowing
institution pay for an appraisal, packing, shipping and insurance.

With all these comments about superficiality and crowds and staff being
diverted from their real jobs - which implies that the public is not part of
their real jobs - I suggest that we all look at who supports museums.
Remember, most are 5.01(c)3 public charities which pay no taxes and exist for
"educational, charitable and/or scientific purposes." If the appearance of a
highly hyped show creates reasons for just plain old people (taxpayers) to use
their possessions (even private museums are tax-supported by the mere absence
of taxes), if a kid is stimulated to go home and read a book, if a museum
becomes a memorable experience, if paying audiences and donors provide more
funding, isn't this what should be happening? I take exception to the tone of
many of the comments I have read over the last several days and urge the
museum industry to be more aware of who feeds it and why.

I believe our museum charges a fee per object, expected to cover the
expenses of packing, shipping, insurance, etc.

I would venture to say that because of the nature of this list we "museum=
people" are having a certain reaction to the crowds at blockbuster exhibi=
tions
that is similar to the feelings some people have about those who attend c=
hurch
only on Christmas Eve. Perhaps we feel that we are more deserving of the
opportunity to see the works without the crowds because we are already de=
voted
to the museum and the shows that may be less popular. =
I don't mean this in any way to be a negative comment, but I am taking th=
e
risk to express my own initial reaction to the crowds at the recent Picas=
so
show in Los Angeles. I was frustrated at having to wait in line, and deal=
with
the visitors who have very little consideration for the people around the=
m,
while trying to see the paintings over people's heads. But then I took a
moment to realize how wonderful it was to see such a variety of people th=
ere
to experience and appreciate the art! I stopped myself and remembered all=
the
discussions in my MA courses about increasing audiences and attracting ma=
ny
different people - and here it was right in front of me. So - I'm hoping =
that
I can visit the Van Gogh show during the week, when there may be less peo=
ple.
And even if I can't experience empty galleries and stand in the middle of=
the
room to see all the paintings around me, I will appreciate the fact that =
there
may be a first time museum visitor standing right next to me - and maybe =
they
will be encouraged to come back.

On the other hand, the hard gains made by the past staff is now enjoyed
by the current staff; recently the gift shop manager left, after being
here for almost ten years; they gave her outgoing salary to the incoming
manager; isn't that ironic? And I don't want to get into a gender
discussion here, it just happened that way. We just need to continue
asking for more pay for the work we do, it's that simple. Okay, enough

Generally speaking, natural history museums don't charge loan fees.
We're pretty much dependent on free interchange of the limited
material available that (usually) has relatively little monetary
value (and often great scientific value). Those of us who tend to
have more incoming than outgoing loans probably come out ahead, but
this is a system that seems to have worked out well for a long
time. Loan fees almost certainly would decrease loan activity, and
natural science research would suffer as a result.

Dear Gump
Would you push your way into a crowded convention hall with maybe 1000
delegates, climb onto the stage and begin shouting that you're bored and you
want to leave, and then order everyone to show you the way out?
Well, that's what you're doing...repeatedly. You're an ill-mannered pest.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Hello list,
I am looking for contacts with museums or professionals who have been
involved with preserving and/or moving old train cars and other railroad
equipment.
Our museum is building, as part of a complete old western town, an 1880 era
cattle car.
We are looking for a wheel set (one truck) and about 100 feet of rail.
Narrow guage or standard is okay. Cattle car door, structural hardware and
a brake wheel desirable.
This exhibit is inside and the wheel set unit would be restored for display
as part
of the reconstructed cattle car. Other rail related turn of the century
items for the
station and track side would also be welcome.
Please contact me off list at

Thank you,
