From museum website:
The mission of the Museum of Art and Archaeology at the University of
Missouri-Columbia is to provide access to original works of art and artifacts
through the development of the permanent collection and to preserve and maintain
all objects in its care. The Museum uses its resources to make its collection
physically available to its constituents through public display or by special
arrangement. The Museum also uses its resources to make its collection
intellectually accessible by studying and researching its holdings and making
the results available to its audiences. The art and artifacts the Museum
collects and displays must be historically and culturally significant and
relevant to the audiences it serves. A "relevant" object is understood to be one
that enhances teaching, is suitable and of sufficient interest for research by
faculty, students, and other scholars, and is of cultural significance to the
broader community.
