collected, prepared or otherwise treated or worked on during
official working hours / office time either belongs to the
collection or is worked on for the collection / research based at
the institution. This e.g. excludes any mazarations for private
purpose during office hours or using lab or other facilities for
private purpose unless explicitly allowed from the head of the

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Greetings all:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here at the Alabama Museum of Natural
History, we are in the final throes of putting together
our Collections Policy and we had some questions about
the section on “Standards of Conduct Relating to
Collections” where Faculty/Staff are concerned. In the
case of personal collections: we have a clause that
says personal collections cannot be maintained on Museum
property without permission from the Executive Director,
and no museum supplies, equipment or paid staff can be
utilized by such.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, personal collections that
are acquired during museum employ (or even before), are
oftentimes used for comparative or teaching examples and
may or may not be museum-worthy samples, or even in the
person’s realm of study. The problem arises when the
personal collection objects become mixed in with the
museum’s collection objects: if the person should
suddenly meet their demise, how does one who must sort
through the remaining objects know what is museum
collections, potential museum collections or personal
collections? What sort of restriction or regulations
can be implemented to prevent such confusion? How do
others in academic/research institutions deal with this
sort of situation? One of our staff has a huge personal
collection of skeletal effigies, reminiscent of “Day of
the Dead”, which co-mingles with the primitive human
osteology research collection in his office. Another
collects skulls, turtle carapaces, etc. that he finds in
his travels, though his research is Vertebrate Paleo.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestions on protocol?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks for your input…</p>
