I would go even further and ask that any long-term loans that have become integral to your exhibits be formalized as donations or returned. Once the heirs get involved, then all bets are off.

>
> Hello Museum L Community,
>
> Can anyone tell me if it is a a good and transparent policy to contact past donors, who are still on this mortal coil, and ask them to sign a deed of gift for items that they have donated (per our PastPerfect System) but for which I cannot locate a deed of gift or any other paperwork legally transferring title?
>
> How do Museum's usually handle this? I am in a new position where I noticed a lot of deed paperwork is missing, but many donors still live in the area. I am balancing the transparency of admitting "hey, in the past we were wrong and somewhat unprofessional to not get this paperwork" with "perfect title" which is, of course, what everyone wants.
> Suggestions are appreciated.
