Museum of Memorial Curiosities Instructions


Information for Venue Staff

What to do when an object gets dropped off.

Plan A
Contact your venue collector to process the object:

Library - Nick Hughes
Memorial Hall - Phil Harding
Weaver Hall Museum - Andrew Davies

Plan B
If they are not about we are eager that we don’t turn people and their objects away so please accept the object and go through the following with the giver. The procedure is as simple as it can be, whilst still ensuring that everyone’s objects are well looked after.
  1. Ask the person to fill in the next object info card in the folder.
  2. Fill in the object receipt and give it to the person.
  3. Ask the person to write a bit about their object on a cabinet card.
  4. Stick a label on the item with its object number on it. 
  5. Give the person the key to the cabinet and ask them to take their cabinet card and item and display it in the cabinet.

What to do when the cabinet gets full.

What is the box for?

As people are loaning their precious items we are conscious that we need to keep them safe. When items are not in the cabinet they will be housed in this box. Please keep it in a secure safe place and let us know if it gets full and you need another box.

What will happen to the items?

Everything is on lone but there will be a day in February where interested archives come to see what they might like in their collections. They will then contact the loaners to see if they would like to donate their items or not.

Any other questions?
