Down to the Nitty-Gritty: A case study of Collection Policies and Procedures in the Ethnology Department at the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Although most museum professionals understand the differences between a Collection Management Policy (CMP) and collection procedures, many find it difficult to create, update, and implement these different documents. The creation of a procedural manual for the Ethnology Department at the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History (SNOMNH) at the University of Oklahoma and an update of SNOMNH’s CMP led to an examination of the differences between policies and procedures, the varying processes of creating and/or updating these different documents, the difficulties of policy/procedure implementation, and the ultimate necessity of both types of documents.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
