see accession number label in a gallery indicating the object s accession number in galleries libraries archives and museums an accession number or catalogue number or various other terms is a unique identifier assigned to each object in a collection for its identification and recording assignment of accession numbers typically occurs at the point of accessioning when the object enters the collection or sometimes in later cataloging accession number tends to be the term in american collections while a variety of other terms are used in other english speaking countries if an item is removed from the collection its number is usually not reused for new items in libraries edit in libraries this numbering system is usually in addition to the library classification number or alphanumeric code and to the isbn or international standard book number assigned by publishers some libraries call their numbers shelfmarks in botany edit accession numbers are also used in botany by institutions with living collections like arboreta botanic gardens etc to identify plants or groups of plants that are of the same taxon are of the same propagule type or treatment were received from the same source were received at the same time 1 herbaria and other botanic institutions collecting non living material also use accession numbers 2 in museums edit an accession number may include the year acquired sometimes the full date as at the british museum and a sequential number separated by a period 3 in addition departments or art classifications within the collection or museum may reserve sections of numbers for example objects identified by the numbers 11 000 through 11 999 may indicate objects obtained by the museum in 1911 the first 300 numbers might be used to indicate american art while the next fifty 11 301 350 might be used for african art in some cases they also include letters and other punctuation such as commas hyphens or slashes 4 uses with other parallel systems edit in older institutions simpler numbering systems are sometimes maintained alongside or incorporated within newer systems where the objects are unique institutions normally need to retain the original number in some form as it will have been used in old references that are still of use in scholarship in particular collections of manuscripts use the prefix ms and many well known manuscripts are known by their old ms numbers often incorporating a prefix for a particular collection within a library these collections may be divided by former owners as with several british library closed collections or by language as with froissart of louis of gruuthuse bnf ms fr 2643 6 indicating a two volume manuscript in french at the bibliothèque nationale de france see also edit
