I am a museum director in southern New Jersey. The collecting focus
of my site is the material culture of the Delaware Valley. I am
wrestling with the creation of two policy statements. First, how and
when inappropriate objects should be deacessioned from my museum.
Secondly, if my museum is the victim of a theft, my Board is wondering
who we should report the artifact theft to, or whether it would be in
our site's best interests not to report thefts at all. Your response
is appreciated - this is my first time using this service.
