Loans
Borrowing from other museums and private collections brings benefits to the borrower and the lender, as well as audiences. But requests for loans are often turned down, for a variety of reasons.
In this issue of Museum Practice, Penny Ritchie Calder explains the benefits of loans and shows how museums can improve their chances of making successful requests.
Plus, in light of funding cuts and concerns about carbon footprints, she explores what the future holds for loans and asks whether environmental standards should be lowered. There are also case studies of regional, national and international loans and the chance for you to have your say on the issues raised.
