collections has become a vital topic in recent years as collecting institutions
face increasingly restricted storage space and resources. As museums refine
their collections to ensure relevance to mandates and communities, there is a
need for increased attention to practices in deaccessioning and disposition to
ensure the overall sustainability and health of both the museum collections and
the public trust. A consortium of museums and related entities across Alberta
initiated this research earlier this year and many B.C. museums contributed
knowledge and experience to the process. Join Sandra Morton Weizman, Museum
Consultant, and Meaghan Patterson, Executive Director / CEO, Alberta Museums
Association, to hear the results from the process and ways we can come together
to understand best practices for deaccessioning in our institutions. </span></p>
