Anything purchased with museum monies (no matter where they come from:  grants, donations, deaccession funds) is considered a purchase.  This is mandated by our finance department [and looked on kindly by our auditors].  The credit line is the vanity plate wherein anyone's name can be listed.

Subject: Accession Method

How do you handle Accession Method when an object is purchased by the institution with funds from a donor. Is this considered a Gift, a Purchase, or do you have some other designation for it?

Many thanks,
