We say we want more sustainable procedures for traveling collections but rarely act on that desire. However, I propose a few ways to make immediate changes.
I've thought about progressive loan fees a lot. Museums will need to pool resources to set standards, in order for these to make sense across the board. Money/fees are not a bad thing if they are used to save the environment.
Yes, within this structure, museums can create their own agreements which will waive fees under certain circumstances, too. Conversely, what we do not want is only rich borrowers having access. Who borrowers/types of institutions should be a part of our progressive loan fee algorithm.
