The Collections Management Policy Toolkit (CMPT) is a free online tool that allows users to build a customized Collections Management Policy for their organization or collection. Using a template developed by the Conservation Center for Art & Historic Artifacts (CCAHA) with help from nationally renowned experts in the collections management field, the CMPT guides users through the process of creating a policy uniquely tailored to their collection and designed to meet professional, ethical, and legal standards.
Made possible with the generous support of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) and through partnership with the web design and development firm YIKES, Inc., the CMPToolkit has assisted in the creation of 120+ Collection Management Policies since its debut last fall. In this introductory webinar, speakers Dyani Feige and Alanna Shaffer will share how and why the CMPToolkit came to be, provide a live demonstration of the tool and offer best practices for its use. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions about the tool and how to building an effective Collections Management Policies can best support your specific organization or collection.
