Dear Sarah Here at the National Gallery, we use the following Loan Purposes: * Long Loan In * Short Loan Out * Exhibition Loan In * Long Loan Out * Temporary Deposit Long loans in and out are exactly that: long-term loans, usually for display alongside a permanent collection. Short loans out are our loan out equivalent of Exhibition loans in: short-term loans, usually for display in a temporary exhibition. We don't use Loan Type.

I am in the process of reviewing our workflow of the Loans module. I wondered if anyone was willing to share some screenshots, or list of terms used for Loan Purpose and Loan Type. Ours is a bit inconsistent so I would love to see how other museums establish these authority fields. Thanks! Best Regards, Sarah L.
