This is a 'Better than Good Record' under the loose grading of records used at HMCMS. This level of recording is only justified when there is a research project based on the collection.

The record structure used here is the OBJECT Format which is an expression of the UK Museums Data Standard. The data structure is available as an XML .dtd file from the MODES User Assocation:-

The data structure is a hierarchical structure which is capable of handling data from museum/archive objects without difficulty. Relational databases are not capable of sufficient flexibilty for this task.
