C2CC There’s a Form for That: Documenting Your Collections
Channel: AIC & FAIC
Date: 2016-10-28

Recorded: Thursday, September 29, 2016

Is your collection properly documented? Every public museum, regardless of number of staff or size of collections, has a duty to record and retain information about the objects in its collection. While it is possible to create individualized records for every object, most museums have developed a group of standard forms that are used to document a variety of actions and activities within the museum. This webinar will consider which museum forms are optional, mandatory, or just nice to have. We will talk about what information should be included on each type of form, and what to consider when creating the forms you need.
