Increasingly, libraries are loaning collection materials to other
institutions for exhibit, Unlike museums, libraries are often unprepared
for this complicated process. This virtual preconference will lay down
the basic elements of a loan agreement, including legal and financial
expectations of both parties and the care and preservation of the
borrowed item. A case study will offer advice and tips on creating a
loan agreement from scratch, as well as direct participants to existing
resources. This virtual preconference is aimed at Library and archives
administration, curators, special collections staff, and
preservation/conservation staff.
This virtual preconference is comprised of three one-hour sessions.
