[Manos PETRIDIS]

Very, very interesting. I'm not a librarian and the example given is most helpful. I have a "maritime" question: in the case of a ship's photograph, where would/do you keep the ships' IMO number, its call code or other such identity numbers? The same for the business entities involved (builder, owner etc.)

Best regards,
Manos PETRIDIS
