Dear Colleagues: We are wondering how other museums handle manuscript collections that relate, either directly or indirectly, to donors and their collections? Are they the responsibility of the registrar's department? the curatorial department? the library? or the archives? Do they get a finding aid? Or are they accessioned as individual items? Are they cataloged? or what? Suggestions appreciated. William A.
