Subject: Transfer of chemical ownership

We have a faculty member involved in a field research project.  There 
are faculty from other universities working on different aspects of the 
project. Our faculty member had extra (?) money so he purchased a 
chemical for one of these other projects (essentially gave it to another 
university's faculty member). There are no money (grant/contract) issues 
in doing this, but because of cradle-to-grave responsibility, I would 
like to have written documentation that the title (ownership) is no 
longer ours.  I need to draft a transfer document for legal to 
review/approve for use.   I seem to be suffering from writer's block, so 
if you have faced this situation and can share your legalese, I would be 
grateful. You may contact me directly at martha.mcrae.dri.edu. Thanks.
