PROCEDURE FOR GIVING NOTICE OF TERMINATION OF A LOAN OF PROPERTY; RESPONSIBILITY
OF OWNER OF LOANED PROPERTY (§ 55.1-2605)

A. To give notice of termination of a loan of property, the museum shall mail a
notice to the lender at the most recent address of the lender as shown on the
museum&#8217;s records pertaining to the loaned property. If the museum has no
address in its records, or the museum does not receive written proof of receipt
of the mailed notice within 30 days of the date the notice was mailed, the
museum shall cause to be published notice at least once a week for three
consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the county or city in
which the museum is located and in a newspaper of general circulation in the
county or city of the lender&#8217;s last known address if different from the
county or city in which the museum is located.

B. For purposes of this section, if the loan of property was made to a branch of
the museum, the museum shall be deemed to be located in the county or city where
the branch is located. In all other cases, the museum shall be deemed to be
located in the county or city in which its principal place of business is
located.

C. The owner of property loaned to a museum shall notify the museum promptly in
writing of any change of address or change in ownership of the property.
