If the museum will not accept my item as a donation, will they accept it as a long-term loan?
The Naperville Heritage Society does not generally accept long-term or permanent loans. While various materials are accepted on a short-term basis related to special exhibitions, programs or events, the institution chooses to commit its resources to the storage and preservation of objects within its own permanent collection holdings.
