In 1998 we claimed a little over 3000 objects under the Abandoned Property
Law of Colorado.  We are currently looking at removing some of these objects
from our collection. When we claimed them as abandoned property we
essentially acquired title for all 3000 objects.  Do these objects need to
go through the same deaccessioned process as other objects that were donated
as gifts with a valid, legal, title?  Or does a seperate form need to be
created for the removal of abandoned property objects from the permanent
collection?

Thanks,
