The early adopters of CollectionSpace represent a range of different museum communities of practice. In order to facilitate adoption that takes advantage of this initial work on configuration, schema extensions, and in some cases customization, we have developed a set of recommended domain extensions and profiles. A domain extension is a group of fields added to a procedure or authority to support the work of a specific community of practice, such as fine art or anthropology. Extensions to more than one procedure or authority are referred to collectively as extension sets. A group of procedures, authorities, and domain extensions combined to support the work of a specific community of practice are referred to as that community's profile. Often, procedures and authorities within the profile may be configured, or slightly changed, to better support the needs of that community of practice.
The CollectionSpace DRAFT anthropology extension set and profile is based on work done by the Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology as part of their CollectionSpace implementation. Several extensions for Cataloging have been created, including cultural care, NAGPRA status, and determination history; these extensions can be viewed via the maps linked below. In addition, a new procedure designed to manage the NAGPRA claims process has been created. The next step in the process is taking these draft maps and sharing them with the wider anthropology community in order to:
