There are various parts pertinent to collections planning: summaries from a
national collections planning colloquium in 2002, for instance, and a sample
outline of a plan. Other bits and pieces throughout.

Is the book mentioned below about writing a collections management policy or
a collecting plan? I'm trying to find a good book on writing a collecting
plan.

This is a neat little book from AAM, too: The AAM Guide to Collections
Planning, James B. Gardner and Elizabeth E. Merritt. Pub. AAM 2004.
While working on accreditation issues, I had a good long talk with the staff
at AAM on this topic. It is much more straight-forward to update the policy
part than the planning part [at least for the collections with which I'm
working] because there are standardized, accepted practices, procedures and
policies. Ask AAM if they can give you samples of vetted policies, which
you can adapt to the particulars of your organization.

Hello to all,
Thank you to those who responded to my last inquiry about the phonograph
recordings. The comments were very helpful. I have another problem that I am
hoping this wonderful community can help me with. We have decided to update
our Collections Management Policy and was wondering if you all could post or
send me your museums CMP? Ours has not been updated in a while so looking at
a recent one would be great. Thank you all.
