Loans order formThe service is continually adding items to the Loans Collection and building up the most popular subject areas. However, there are times when several schools request the same items. In these circumstances we endeavour to be as fair as possible to our subscribers; apportioning loans evenly to each school. This may mean, for example, a school ordering four items on the Victorians will receive two specified items and two substitutions on the same topic.
When a subject area is heavily over-subscribed, we reserve the right to supply only part of each school's order so that each may receive something.
It is a condition of use of the service that all schools take special care of their loans, especially handleable items, and ensure that everything is carefully repacked in entirety for collection at the end of term. It is the school's responsibility to return any items which are not made ready for the time of collection.
Loss or damage must be reported immediately to Dorcas Sanders and the school may be charged for replacement or repair. A ‘Care of Museum Loans Information' booklet has been produced to help you care for the loan items.
