Dear Museum-L,
    Our 1899 catalog lists all of the museum collections as loans to the
museum.  This amounts to over a thousand items that are still in the
museum collections today.  Due to a lack of storage space  I would like
to deaccession several of the "loaned" objects that don't support our
mission statement.
    I am aware that this may be a difficult process (particularly since
the museum is in a small town where everyone is related) with many legal
concerns.  I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has tackled this
type of a problem.  I want to be as well prepared as possible!  Thank
you.

Starlyn D'Angelo, Curator
Old Stone Fort Museum
