"Many organizations have cultural assets that require their own protective approach without being a property: corporate art collection, libraries, and grounds open to the public. Some of Layne's ideas could be useful in tightening different targets." --Security Letter "...introduces and discusses at a fundamental level a wide number of topics pertinent to protecting cultural properties. Many of these topics easily transfer to other areas of facility security."--ASIS Dynamics Newsletter, January 2015
