Lots of red tape involved in de-acessing I'll bet

Even worse if the items were gifted to the museum.
The buzzword in many museums these days is interactive. The assumption is that people need to be entertained to be informed. The problem with that is we are told what it is we need to know, rather than allowed to decide what we are interested in knowing. Perhaps it is all down to shorter attention spans and the need for bells and whistles to capture those attention spans
On the other hand the concept of an interactive collection of edged weapons.....nahh, cant go there
