Museum Collection

Definition

An object aggregate that has as member parts a material sample that is located in a museum as a result of a process of curation.

Usage Note

The class museum collection has meaning that is much broader than biological collections. It would probably be better to import this term from another, more general ontology and create a specific subclass for natural history museum collection.
