“The draft 990 is first reviewed in detail by the museum's director of finance and the executive director. Any changes, comments and questions are reviewed with the tax preparer. A revised draft is completed and forwarded to the finance committee, comprised of members of the governing body, for their approval and submission to the internal revenue service.”

“No change from prior year.”
“All lobbying expenses are reflected in part ix, statement of functional expenses, in the science center planning included on line 24a, as they pertain to the museum's plans for building a new science center.”
“Collections the museums's collections are made up of artifacts of historical, cultural, or scientific significance that are held for educational, research, scientific, or curatorial purposes. Each of the items is cataloged, preserved, and cared for, and activities verifying their existence and assessing their condition are performed continuously. The collections are subject to a policy that requires proceeds from their sales to be used for the improvement and maintenance of existing collections. In accordance with the practice generally followed by museums, the value of objects in the collections is excluded from the financial statements; collections are reflected in the accompanying financial statements at a nominal value of $1. Since the museum's inception, such collections were acquired primarily through contributions. Purchases of collection items are recorded as decreases in unrestricted net assets in the year in which the items are acquired or as decreases in temporarily restricted net assets, if the assets used to purchase the items are restricted by donors. Contributed collection items are not reflected in the financial statements. Proceeds from deaccessions or insurance recoveries are reflected as increases in net assets.”
“Income from endowment fund is to be used for operating purposes.”
