Per skype discussions on Nov 6, among Gabi, Chris, Ole and Carol, notes prepared by Carol Nov 21 2014'''<br>
'''''All recommended changes updated in the wiki on 2014-11-30'''''<br>
1. abcd:AcquiredFrom<br>
change to “Received From”
New description: Name of person and/or organization the unit was received from.  Person/Institution who authorized the loan of the material.  From the perspective of the owner of the material, this type of loan is incoming.  
New Examples(s): e.g. lender or recipient of a strain, sample, specimen etc.
Gabi: done
ADD Loan number -> Gabi: done as [[ggbn:loanIdentifier]]<br>

2. dwc:associated References<br>
ADD Material Transfer Agreements (MTAs) to the list of examples, as MTAs can affect ggbn:blocked status. Gabi: done, added as Notes<br>

3. dwc:disposition<br>
ADD “consumed” to list of Examples. Gabi: done, added as Notes<br>

4. ggbn:loanConditions<br>
New Example(s): for non-commercial institutions only; only with permission of material supplier
Gabi: done<br>

5. ADD a concept for “LoanedTo” to complement the concept of “Received From”.  Both parties in a loan transaction should be able to use this Vocabulary.
Gabi: added loanDestination und loanDate, since the Australian Herbaria have done this couple of years ago already (standard called HISPID (extension for ABCD))<br>

From the perspective of the owner of materials, loans can be characterized as incoming (also can be called “borrows”) or outgoing. Gabi: added to Notes http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/GGBN_Loan_Vocabulary<br>

The party providing access is thus the lender, and the party receiving access is the borrower.  Lenders send outgoing loans, borrowers receive incoming loans. Gabi: added to Notes http://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/GGBN_Loan_Vocabulary<br>

LoanedTo: Name of person and/or organization the unit was sent to.  Person/Institution who received the material. Gabi: done as loanedDestination<br>

NOTE:  in this instance, “sent” is not equivalent to “shipped”.  A shipment can be directed to a recipient who is not the actual intended responsible party; many organizations have shipping offices to handle packages.  Gabi: done (notes for loanedDestination)
