=== Collection Profile ===
The “Collection” fieldProfile, which is available in CatalogIt Museum and Organization accounts, is a repeating field that allows you to break up your own collection into distinct groups that you create and assign. For example, you may have a named collection within your permanent collection called “Jane Smith Craft and Decorative Art Collection.” This same item may also be in your overall “Craft and Decorative Art Collection” and CatalogIt allows you to include multiple collections to ensure you are identifying your collections as specifically as required. The Collection Profile is a user-defined field. Users can create as many Collection Profiles as needed to ensure their collections are organized and categorized in ways that are of most use to them.
A "Collection" Profile is a handy way to relate a group of items together - and any Entry can be part of multiple Collections. You can relate items by the artist into a collection, then if/when you need to, search for that Collection and add the items to a Folder.
Examples:
* Named collections eg: The Daniel Peter Danielson Basket Collection* General collections used by a specific institution eg: “Crafts and Decorative Art Collection” or “Egyptian Textile Collection”Collection,” or "Education Collection."
