2.3. Hierarchical collection structures and subcollections (INFORMATION)

[cboelling]

The hierarchy of collections is dynamic, and sometimes they intersect. What for someone is a single institutional collection, for others are multiple collections (including a Dry Collection, a Seeds Collections, a Logs Collection, a Wet Collection). These can even be physically distributed in various locations and even in distinct institutions.

Such relations could be represented by a carefully drafted set of relations, as argued here.
