Re: Gifts to academic units



Steven,

Your problem rings true to many academic archivists, I am sure.  The only
advice I can offer is to put the guns on the table with the various
departments in question:  no transfer of ownership means no storage!  We pay
enough dough around here to store the stuff we have title to, and we can't
be nice guys and expect to pay the light bill.

Good luck with your negotiations.  Visualize being Charles Foster Kane when
you talk to 'em...
