"Loan Agreements for Exhibits Materials"
A three-part virtual preconference runs June 18 through June 20, 2013.
All sessions begin at 11 a.m. Pacific, noon Mountain, 1 p.m.
Central, and 2 p.m. Eastern time.
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 the following three one-hour
sessions.
Tuesday, June 18 - "Introduction to Loan Agreements"
Presented by Kristina Bottomley, Registrar, Block Museum of
Art, Northwestern University.
Wednesday, June 19 - "Conservation and Preservation Issues"
