Collections Policy Questions

We’re in the process of writing a collections policy for our congregation’s museum and I am looking for examples from other communities to consult as we go along. If anyone has a museum collection policy they could share, I would be very grateful.

Thanks,
Sarah

Records Retention Questions

Enclosed below are some questions from new ACWR member Charlene Martin regarding records retention policies and some clarification/utilization of the policies outlined in the 2000 ACWR Records Management guide:

Questions Regarding Records Retention Policies

Habit Identification Question

I am wondering if anyone can identify the order this sister was a member of through her habit?  She was from Green Bay and lived from 1856-1878. She may have been a member of the Ursulines or Sisters of Our Lady of Charity.

Also does anyone know of a book that perhaps has photos of different orders habits? It is a question that seems to come up often and a book like that would be very helpful.

Thank you. Kris Matthies
