Hello all,

Would anyone like to share their best practices for loaning out, or exhibiting, a single component within an object record? For example, loaning out only the teapot from a tea set, where each piece of the set is defined as a component within the tea set object record.

Our case is what we call modern copies of Munch’s own photos where we can have several physical copies of a Munch original, and all copies are registered under the same object number. When one of these copies is included in an exhibition or a loan we would of course want to link the single component and not the whole record to the exhibition or the loan. It seems that TMS doesn’t allow this kind of component/object separation for the purposes of loans and exhibitions. We use TMS 2012.

Perhaps the only answer is to avoid creating components for sets where loans like this are a possibility, but I’m curious to know how others have approached this.

Kind regards,
