A Legal Primer on Managing Museum Collections deals first with the museum itself and then with the collection. Under accessioning are the circumstances that can affect the quality of title such as stolen property, plants and wildlife, and antiquities. There are also copyright considerations. Some of the further circumstances affecting the collection are the disposal or deaccessioning, the handling of loans, how to handle gifts, tax considerations, insurance, access, and visitor and employee safety. Book includes Appendixes and Index.
