In order to maximize communication and cooperation among those collecting or studying Minnesota folklife, to protect the rights of persons who give information to collectors and students of Minnesota folklife, and to assist those who wish to represent accurately the folklife of the state of Minnesota, the state folklorist may establish procedures by which persons who collect or study Minnesota folklife may:
(1) submit their plans and report their ongoing and final findings to the center;
(2) report to the center any use, publication, or production of their work, and provide copies of any publication; and
(3) provide at no cost to themselves copies of their fieldwork data for deposit in the archive of the center to be used in accordance with the wishes of the donor.
