James A. Ganz, Curator of the Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts and President of the Print Council of America, informed us that the 2015 digital edition of the PCA’s Guidelines for Lending Works of Art on Paper is now available as a free download on their website at this link.

The download does not require a password and is provided free of charge to any interested party. This digital edition takes the place of the 1995 edition of the pamphlet, which is now out of print. The foreword to this publication spells out its long history. Many distinguished members of the PCA had a hand in the compilation and review of the original manuscript, including Verna Curtis, Suzanne Boorsch, Marjorie Cohn, and Meg Graselli who all contributed to the 1995 edition. Joan Wright of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston brought the text up to date with evolving standards and practices of the 21st century.
