Motivation for this unit has been the Object TitleInformation Group of the International Guidelines for Museum Object Information: The CIDOC Information Categories and other domain expert knowledge, as well as interpretation of characteristic database schema elements from relevant collection management systems.

According to the International Guidelines for Museum Object Information: The CIDOC Information Categories, Object title information supports Security, Access, and an Historic archive. Often the primary identification of fine art and other high value objects, the Object title is essential for describing such collections. It is also a primary point of access to object information for all types of user.  It should include the following information categories.

  1. Title
  2. Title type
  3. Title translation
