Subject: [Nhcoll-l] Valuing collections

 

Here at Auckland Museum we are currently reviewing our valuation methodology
for our collections and more importantly our Natural Science collections. We
are reviewing current practice around this with other institutions to inform
ours- methodology and how this works in practice with internal stakeholders
and auditors etc.

 

Our four main collections are: Botany, Entomology, Marine and Land
Vertebrates but we also have  Geology and Palaeontology collections

 

I would be very grateful if anyone was willing to share this information or
point me in the direction of some relevant information.

 

Contact can be made offline

 

Kind regards

Vasiti
