Firearms
Reference Library Project
Utah Gun Collectors Association
will be working with libraries throughout the state to provide some of
the most respected reference books on collector firearms at no cost to
the libraries. A selection of books valued at over $500.00 will be
donated. UGCA will pick up about 75% of the cost and UGCA members
willing to pay the remaining 25% will get to nominate the library to receive
the gift. Libraries will be contacted to ensure that they are willing
to accept the books for reference and circulation, not for sale in fund
raising events.
With the cooperation of
one of the best dealers in gun books, we will be able to get these at a
considerable discount, enabling us to provide more libraries with good
gun books.

Museum
Exhibit Assistance Program
Utah Gun Collectors Association

related exhibits. These will involve temporary loans and exhibits
in place for three to six months as part of a museum's ongoing rotation
of exhibits on various topics. UGCA members will work closely with
the museums to provide technical assistance and help locate suitable items
for display. Museums will handle the actual display installation,
signs, security, etc. as with all their other exhibits.
Some possible themes include:
