At Conner Prairie we use two numbering systems. One is for artifacts and
is the year prefixed number. The second is a sequential numbering system
starting at 4000 and prefixed with CPM(Conner Prairie Museum). Therefore
76.14 is an artifact while CPM.7614 is a reproduction.
All artifacts and repros. are cataloged and tracked through our collections
management system (Argus for Windows), they have individual document files
(hard copies) including the same paperwork requirements(i.e. reciepts/Deeds
of Gift, conservation info., research, etc.)
