Sally Yerkovich is an internationally known speaker, museum leader and
author of A Practical Guide to Museum Ethics. She is director of the
Institute of Museum Ethics at Seton Hall University and adjunct
professor in the Museum Professions Program at Seton Hall and in the
Museum Anthropology Program at Columbia University. A member of the
Ethics Committee for the International Council of Museums (ICOM), she
worked with museums in Central and Eastern Europe as President of the
Fund for Arts and Culture.
She served as Chair of the American Alliance of Museums Task Force
charged with clarifying the ethical principles involved in the use of
funds realized from the sale of deaccessioned objects. This national
effort resulted in the publication of a major policy paper, "Direct Care
of Collections: Ethics, Guidelines and Recommendations," published in
April 2016.
Sally will be leading a new course How to Develop a Code of Ethics for
Your Museum in January 2017, another in our series of courses on what
the American Alliance of Museums calls the five core documents.
