[NHCOLL-L:3837] collections moved to other museums

[Malcolm McCallum]

A curious question....
If a collection from university museum A is moved to museum B at another university, can museum A request the collection back a decade or more later?
Are these usually considered gifted or loaned collections?

Subject: [NHCOLL-L:3834] Vulcanized Fiber
 
Has anybody ever used vulcanized fiber tags for tissue tubes?  We've used regular paper tags inside tissue tubes with success, but our new tag company (Kay Toledo Tag) prints on vulcanized fiber.  Has anybody tested this to see what it does to tissues in a tube?
