Museum Document Exchange Program
We need your digital documents!

Through the years, NEMA's Museum Policy Loan Service has been one of our most popular benefits, giving members direct access to best practices through policies shared by fellow museums. Since the program's inception, literally hundreds of museums have participated by loaning and borrowing policies, helping our museum community grow stronger together.

Now, to better serve our members, we're excited to announce that the program is going digital and is renamed the Museum Document Exchange, an online library that includes all types of museum policies and documents including bylaws, investment policies, personnel handbooks, collection management, and more.

But to make the library a true benefit to our museum community, we need your help. Please take a few minutes to review the list below and see if you have policies that you'd like to share with your museum colleagues. Any electronic format is fine (Word, PDF, text, etc.). Send your policies to nema@nemanet.org. We will add your policies to our database, which will be available permanently to NEMA members free of charge. If you have any questions about the Museum Document Exchange program, please contact the NEMA office at 781-641-0013.
