Re: Policy regarding directors,officers and staff



Although I can't find it on their website, and my memory may be faulty, but
I believe that AAM has strict restrictions on the professional ethics of
collecting by staff.  Basically, you cannot collect anything that your
institution would consider collecting.  The mechanism by which this is
enforced is not disclosed...
Good luck.

Subject: Policy regarding directors,officers and staff


Do any non-profit archives have a policy concerning directors, officers
and/or staff actively collecting records that are within the collecting
guidelines of the archive for their own personal collections?

Also, do any non-profits have a policy concerning directors or officers who
serve multiple organizations with potentially conflicting or competing
collecting guidelines?

Does anyone in a non-profit archive have experience with these situations,
and if so, how are/were they handled?

Thanks in advance for any and all assistance given.

Best wishes,
