Okla. Stat. tit. 60, § 60-2007: Loaned property — Conservation measures or disposal of

property.

A. Unless there is a written loan agreement to the contrary, a

museum may apply conservation measures to or dispose of property on

loan to the museum without a lender's permission if immediate action

is required to protect the property on loan or to protect other

property in the custody of the museum, or the property on loan has

become a hazard to the health and safety of the public or of the

museum's staff, and:

1. The museum cannot reach the lender at the lender's last

address of record so that the museum and the lender can promptly

agree on a solution; or

2. The lender will not agree to the protective measures the

museum recommends, yet is unwilling or unable to terminate the loan

and retrieve the property.

B. If a museum applies conservation measures to or disposes of

property under subsection A of this section, the museum:

1. Has a lien on the property and on the proceeds from any

disposition of the property for the costs incurred by the museum;

and

2. Is not liable for injury to or loss of the property if the

museum:

a. had a reasonable belief at the time the action was

taken that the action was necessary to protect the

property on loan or other property in the custody of

the museum, or that the property on loan constituted a

hazard to the health and safety of the public or the

museum's staff, and

b. exercised reasonable care in the choice and

application of the conservation measures.
