Register and although the bulk of the items are at our institution there are other items by the same creator (eg scrapbooks, films and artworks) at other places. How do we make a joint nomination?
Our overwhelming preference would be for all the holding institutions to participate in the nomination. When this occurs, as it does quite often, we present Certificates of Inscription to all the holding institutions in recognition of the Memory of the World status of the nominated collection. We have found in the past that institutions are generally keen to have their collections recognised in this way. Of course, if one or more of the institutions is not prepared to participate for any reason, it would then be appropriate to note the existence of this material in their collections, making the point that, while one institution holds the bulk of the items, you are aware of supplementary material in other places. This addresses the criterion of completeness and integrity in the assessment of the significance of the items.
