Acquisition Information

Comment:

According to the International Guidelines for Museum Object Information: The CIDOC Information Categories, acquisition information supports Security and Accountability. It is needed to provide evidence of the legal status of the object as part of the museum's collections and should record the following information categories:

Acquisition method
Acquisition date
Acquisition source

Frequently acquisition of objects is confused with legal acquisition. In this graph we describe only legal acquisition of objects. Physical acquisition is dealt with in the Collection Information graph.

Appellation Information

Comment:

Appellation, i.e. names, titles and identifiers are relative to a group of people using these names for some thing. Therefore the CIDOC CRM models and recommends to register the history and use of appellations in order to trace the identity of objects throughout their history, rather than relying on possible unique identifiers.

Attribute Assignment

Comment:

Motivation of this unit is expert knowledge about assigning attributes to items, as well as interpretation of characteristic database schema elements from relevant collection management systems.

Changing Thing

Comment:

Motivation for this unit is expert knowledge about transformation and modification activities, as well as interpretation of characteristic database schema elements from relevant collection management systems.

CIDOC CRM Class Hierarchy

CLP104 subject to

Quantification:

one to many, dependent (0,n:1,1)

Scope Note:

This property associates a publication, i.e. an instance of F3 Manifestation Product Type, with an instance of E30 Right, which applies to all exemplars of that publication, as long as they are recognised as exemplars of that publication.
The rights covered by this property may include: acquisition or access authorisation; terms of availability; access restrictions on the Manifestation Product Type; etc.

Examples:

The publication entitled ‘Recent poems’ by the author named ‘Stephen Spender’, released by the publisher named ‘Anvil Press Poetry’ in 1978 and identified by ISBN ‘0856460516’ (F3) CLP104 subject to availability restricted to Anvil Press Poetry subscribers (E30) [P3 has note ‘This edition […] is available only to Anvil Press Poetry subscribers’ (E62)]

CLP105 right held by

Quantification:

many to many (0,n:0,n)

Scope Note:

This property associates a publication, i.e. an instance of F3 Manifestation Product Type, with an instance of E39 Actor, who holds an instance of E30 Right on all exemplars of that publication, as long as they are recognised as exemplars of that publication.

Examples:

CLP2 should have type

Quantification:

many to many (0,n:0,n)

Scope Note:

This property associates a publication, i.e. an instance of F3 Manifestation Product Type, with an instance of E55 Type, which all exemplars of that publication should belong to, as long as they are recognised as exemplars of that publication. Typically, this property is observed on one exemplar of a publication, and extrapolated to all other exemplars of the same publication. This logical inference is an induction along the path that can be modelled as: F3 Manifestation Product Type R7i has example F5 Item P41i was classified by E17 Type Assignment P42 assigned E55 Type.
It can happen that a given exemplar, or subset of exemplars, originally produced, or intended to be produced, with that characteristic, accidentally lacks it. This fact should be recorded as a property of F5 Item, and not of F3 Manifestation Product Type.

Examples:

The sound recording entitled ‘The Glory (????) of the human voice’, identified by label and label number ‘RCA Victor Gold Seal GD61175’, containing recordings of musical works performed by Florence Foster Jenkins (F3) CLP2 should have type sound recording (E55)
The sound recording entitled ‘The Glory (????) of the human voice’, identified by label and label number ‘RCA Victor Gold Seal GD61175’, containing recordings of musical works performed by Florence Foster Jenkins (F3) CLP2 should have type kind of sound: monaural (E55)

CLP43 should have dimension

Quantification:

one to many, necessary, dependent (1,n:1,1)

Scope Note:

This property associates a publication, i.e. an instance of F3 Manifestation Product Type, with an instance of E54 Dimension, which all exemplars of that publication should have, as long as they are recognised as exemplars of that publication. Typically, this property is observed on one exemplar of a publication, and extrapolated to all other exemplars of the same publication. This logical inference is an induction along the path that can be modelled as: F3 Manifestation Product Type R7i has example F5 Item P39i was measured by E16 Measurement P40 observed dimension E54 Dimension.
It can happen that a given exemplar, or subset of exemplars, originally produced, or intended to be produced, with that characteristic, accidentally lacks it. This fact should be recorded as a property of F5 Item, and not of F3 Manifestation Product Type.

Examples:

The publication entitled ‘Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records: final report’, published by K. G. Saur in 1998, identified by ISBN ‘3-598-11382-X’ (F3) CLP43 should have dimension height of the individual copy of ‘Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records: final report’ that I have at hand and that I observed while describing it (E54) P3 has note ‘24 cm’ (E62) [or, alternatively: P90 has value ‘24’ (E60) and P91 has unit ‘cm’ (E58)]
The jigsaw puzzle entitled ‘Map of the New York city subway system’, designed by Stephen J. Voorhies and released around 1954 by the Union Dimes Savings Bank (F3) CLP43 should have dimension length and height of the exemplar held and catalogued by the Library of Congress (E54) P3 has note ‘46 x 29 cm’ (E62)

CLP45 should consist of

Quantification:

many to many (0,n:0,n)

Scope Note:

This property associates a publication, i.e. an instance of F3 Manifestation Product Type, with an instance of E57 Material, which all exemplars of that publication should consist of, as long as they are recognised as exemplars of that publication. Typically, this property is observed on one exemplar of a publication, and extrapolated to all other exemplars of the same publication. This logical inference is an induction along the path that can be modelled as: F3 Manifestation Product Type R7i has example F5 Item P41i was classified by E17 Type Assignment P42 assigned E57 Material.
It can happen that a given exemplar, or subset of exemplars, originally produced, or intended to be produced, with that characteristic, accidentally lacks it. This fact should be recorded as a property of F5 Item, and not of F3 Manifestation Product Type.

Examples:

The jigsaw puzzle entitled ‘Map of the New York city subway system’, designed by Stephen J. Voorhies and released around 1954 by the Union Dimes Savings Bank (F3) CLP45 should consist of cardboard (E57)
