Dear All,
We noticed that a lot of you started to fill in the survey and then stopped. We will be really grateful to make time for that. Your opinion does matter.
This survey has to be meant as an exploratory study. The findings of this research as the valuable comments we received from some of you will be used to develop a qualitative research with semi-structured interview that will be carried out in the next Fall.
We decided to extend the survey validity to the end of August, hoping that more people will participate to it.

Dear Sir/ Madam,
The last years, new regulations have been promoted in Europe as to allow museums to sell items to other public institutions or, more rarely, to private collectors. This practice is called "deaccessioning". In US, as in other European countries, museums possess many items that are never exhibited, mostly due to a lack of space and resources. On average, only 10% of the total collection of a museum is actually displayed.
As professional of an US museum, you are kindly invited to express your opinion on this topic by filling in the present survey. Your contribution is relevant in order to understand this practice and how it can be improved in the next future. We thank you very much for your time and support!
