Contributions to the Collection
MM-O-DD collects limited acquisitions.
If you’re interested in donating to the collection these are the need-to-know facts.
Public policy on what we collect
To donate to the permanent collection you must set up an appointment with one of the collections council. This appointment allows the museum to verify all documentation related to a donation including rules in place to prevent MM-O-DD from purchasing and/or displaying looted antiquities or objects. All potential donations are brought to the collections council as we have strict guidelines and are transparent about acquisitions of any antiquities. We align with the mind-shift to allow the public to come to its own decisions about whether or not the museum was properly scrutinizing the available information to avoid stolen heritage. The Collections council decides as a group to accept or not accept donations to the collection.
MM-O-DD has limited archival storage therefore the cost of the housing of and documentation of the collection costs will need to be provided by the donor. We follow the AAM rules that “museums should make available the known ownership history of archaeological material and ancient art in their collections” — regardless of acquisition date. When objects are donated to the MM-O-DD, ownership is legally transferred to the Museum. There is the option of loaning objects and artwork to MM-O-DD for a specific exhibition. To donate, add to or have questions about the MM-O-DD collection, please contact MM-O-DD or more information.
Guidelines for conducting research in collaboration with MM-O-DD
We welcome researchers to contribute to the MM-O-DD platform. The museum has limited ability to physically collect objects and maintain archival records, yet with technology collections are captured and highlighted on a digital platform. If you are interested in learning more make an appointment with a member of the Collections council. MM-O-DD will accommodate requests as we are able and suggest contacting the archives in advance.
You must receive confirmation of an appointment to be granted access to any archival collateral.
