Museum Loan Network

Hello all,

Does anyone on the list have information about an organization called the Museum Loan Network?

Thanks in advance.

Holly Young Curator of Collections Pueblo Grande Museum

Holly, you and others can receive information on the Museum Loan Network from Lori Gross or anyone on her staff. The email address is
http://loanet.mit.edu/web/index.htm The Museum Loan Network grants money for inventory of collections for addition to the MLN database, for covering the cost of loans for exhibitions, and for researching other collections for potential loans. It is a really great program. The website goes into much better detail and you can get applications and guidelines from Lori. Hope this helps!
