Thoughts
If you donate to a museum, as I have in the past, you never know if they are going to junk things in duse course, sell them, or make them available...or charge outrageous fees for copies.
I intend to appoint a literary executor, and ask them to dispose of everything left for maximum gain for my family with the proviso that it goes to someone who appreciates it. Tough nut to crack I think. Or alternatively I'll dispose of it all beforehand and shove the £££ on deposit! However I have my literary copyrights to deal with so I'll still have to appoint an executor who knows their onions in that respect.
Alex, you might consider setting up a charitable trust with trustees that can appoint new ones. I would then bequeath everything to the trust.
