<div dir="ltr">Thanks Ian, <div><br></div><div>by collecton I mean that in one repository I can develop different collcetions (example: doctoral theses collection, writers of the 19th century collection, manuscript collection, and so on...). Each collection than could be browse by the subject head or <span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">classifications.</span> Collection would be organized documents/items from one area organized by the subject of that area. As result of that you can browse all collections from one interface instead you have many different repository for each reserach area?</div>

</div>What do you mean by "Collection"?<br>
How does a "Collection" differ from a "Subject"?<br>
<br>
You can have multiple subject-like classifications an a single<br>
repository - yes.<br>

</div>Yes - in the same way a single record can be associated with multiple<br>
subjects<br>

</div>Multiple subject-like classifications?<br>
Yes - but the management of it would be a nightmare for your data-loggers<br>

</div>Yep, just like for subject.<br>
