>
> I'm doing research on the debate over how to handle
> Nazi-confiscated Jewish (or another ethnic
> group's)property that has found its way into American
> museums. I was wondering if any of you have had to
> deal with this issue and if so, how did you handle it?
> Also, what are your thoughts on this issue? Should
> the property be returned to the family, given they can
> provide proof that it belonged to them? What does the
> museum do about this loss then?
>
> Any insight you could give me would be greatly
> appreciated!
