(a) A nonprofit museum or cultural center may apply on a form prepared by the museum for a loan of an artifact from the Alaska State Museum collection for nonprofit educational use of the artifact. In determining whether to grant or deny the loan request, the chief curator shall consider the
(1) standards for safety and security adopted and implemented by the institution applying for the loan;
(2) ability of the institution to care for the object, including whether the institution
(A) will insure the object under an all-risk, wall-to-wall policy during the time of the loan; and
(B) will provide special care if special care is required;
(3) risk of damage or loss to the artifact from the requested use;
(4) effect the loan will have on the Alaska State Museum's programming;
(5) term of the loan; a long-term or permanent loan may not be approved; and
(6) public interest.
(b) The museum will reserve the right to terminate a loan at the museum's discretion. The chief curator shall determine in writing whether to approve a request for an extension of a loan. The chief curator may not approve a loan extension unless all conditions of the loan, including insurance, will be met for the term of the extension.
(c) An educational institution in the state may apply on a form prepared by the museum for a loan of objects that have been placed by the museum in a hands-on educational collection. The chief curator may approve a loan request under this subsection if the request is consistent with the
(1) education purpose for which the collection was designed; that purpose may, if appropriate, include uses that affect, modify, or destroy the object; and
(2) public interest.
(d) An Alaska Native clan or tribe may apply under 4 AAC 58.130 for a loan for cultural use of an Alaska Native artifact in the permanent collection of the museum.
