Just one question:
If the additional cards are issued will some museums resent the fact that so many more people will be able to avoid their admissions fee?

Dear Gary:
The idea to provide larger institutions with additional ICOM cards is very
good. Many museums have contract employees or fellows, who are staying in
the museum for a limited time, and many of them are directly involved in
exhibitions, collections research etc. If a larger institution has several
unpersonalized cards, it would be possible to provide some of these people
with such a card, and I am sure that those, who will stay in the museum
field, will become interested to be an individual member, because they had
the experience with the unpersonalized card.

Emne: Membership cards Discussion
ICOM Colleagues:
I have been asked to discuss the option of granting additional
membership
cards to larger institutional members. The number of cards could be
based on
the number of employees at the member institution. As you may be aware,
institutional members currently receive three cards. The exception to
this
limitation is ICOM Germany where the Executive Council decided to
experiment
with providing additional cards for larger museums. The experiment was
to
determine whether the extra card incentive would attract additional
institutional members and not reduce individual memberships. Responses
to
date have confirmed that both these presumptions are true. There has
been a
substantial increase in institutional members and no reduction in
individual
members. In fact, individual membership continues to increase.
The value of providing additional cards for institutional members based
on
the number of employees, at least in this one experimental case, is
positive. However, the question remains, should this become an inclusive
practice for ICOM?
I am to report to the Executive Council on this matter at the next
meeting
and would appreciate your thoughts and comments.
Gary Edson, Member
