>What kind of insurance would a library be likely to have?

John, this has been discussed a lot recently and has been a topic on
exlibris for over 10 years. For the detailed discussion that took
place this month, search the archive for:

insurance appraisals

There was also a 1992 thread and a long thread on this in 1999.
Search the archive for:
