I'm interested in hearing from you if: -Your museum has a formal position of risk manager - for collections and/or other property or buildings; or if you contract out these services; or if you are assisted by a city or county risk manager. - You make regular or occasional risk management assessments - either internally or by hiring someone to come in and review particular situations. Such assessments might include an annual walk-through to identify hazardous conditions. It might also include a follow-up or post mortem meeting after the occurrence of a leak or natural disaster, for instance, to evaluate the staff's response and remedy. Any information regarding your institution's practices in managing risk or controlling loss to collections is desired. In return, if you request it I will share our own risk management policies and procedures.
