Apologies, I should have put NEW ISSUE in the subject for this originally.

As a quick proposal to discuss:

With P54 has current permanent location as a precedent, I would propose a Pxx 
has current permanent custodian as a new property to manage the knowledge 
described in the email below.

Happy to work on a scope note for it if that’s a useful thing to add to the 
ontology.

Subject: Normal Custodian Of?


Dear fellow SIG folks,

Happy new year 😊

A question came up here as to how to record the normal custodian of an object, 
as opposed to the current custodian.

For example, if we have custody of an object but it’s a permanent loan from a 
donor, and we lend it to another organization for an exhibition, then the owner 
doesn’t change (still the donor, probably wanting to remain anonymous) and 
there’s a transfer of custody from ourselves to the exhibiting organization.  
If that’s a travelling exhibit, it might pass through several custodians before 
it should eventually return to us.

Is there a way to track this not-quite-an-owner but 
not-just-the-current-custodian state?  The only way that I can see is to model 
the right of permanent custody separate from the right of temporary custody… 
but then we re-enter the rights and temporal validity arena.  Perhaps this 
would be another motivating use case for moving forward with that work?

Many thanks for your thoughts,

Rob
