LegalResponsibilityCollection:
is_a: CustodianCollection
class_uri: tooi:Informatieobject
description: >-
Specialized subclass of CustodianCollection representing information objects (informatieobjecten)
under the legal responsibility of a heritage custodian organization.
**TOOI Ontology Alignment**:
- Follows TOOI pattern: tooi:Informatieobject with tooi:verantwoordelijke property
- tooi:verantwoordelijke: "Overheidsorganisatie die de wettelijke verantwoordelijkheid draagt
voor de inhoud (strekking) van het informatieobject" (Organization with legal responsibility
for the content/purport of the information object)
- Maps information objects to legally responsible organizations
**Definition from TOOI**:
- Informatieobject: "Een resource waarvan de essentiële karakteristieken medegedeeld kunnen
worden in een bericht" (A resource whose essential characteristics can be communicated in a message)
- Subclass of prov:Entity and dcat:Resource
**Key Distinctions**:
- **LegalResponsibilityCollection**: Collections with FORMAL LEGAL ACCOUNTABILITY
- Must have identifiable legal custodian (via CustodianLegalStatus)
- Legal responsibility documented through registration, statute, or regulation
- Example: Government archives legally mandated to preserve records
- **CustodianCollection** (parent class): General heritage collections
- May or may not have formal legal responsibility relationship
- Includes both legally mandated and voluntarily maintained collections
- Example: Private collection donated to museum (no legal mandate)
**Use Cases**:
1. **Government Archives**: Collections legally mandated by archival laws
- Example: National archives responsible for government records (Archiefwet 1995)
2. **Public Museums**: Collections under legal custody of government agencies
- Example: Rijksmuseum collection under formal responsibility of Dutch state
3. **University Libraries**: Collections legally held by educational institutions
- Example: University library with statutory responsibility for holdings
4. **Heritage Registers**: Legally designated monument collections
- Example: Municipal monument register required by Heritage Act
**Temporal Dimension**:
Legal responsibility can change over time through:
- Custody transfers (collections moving between legal entities)
- Organizational mergers/splits (responsibility transferred to successor entities)
- Statutory changes (new laws assigning responsibility)
- Deaccessioning (legal responsibility terminated)
Track responsibility changes via:
- `responsible_legal_entity` with temporal validity (valid_from/valid_to)
- Multiple LegalResponsibilityCollection instances for different time periods
- custody_history documenting transfers
**Examples**:

**Distinction from managing_unit**:
- `responsible_legal_entity`: TOP-LEVEL legal accountability (CustodianLegalStatus)
- Who is LEGALLY responsible? (foundation, government agency, etc.)
- Established through statute, registration, or regulation
- `managing_unit`: OPERATIONAL management (OrganizationalStructure)
- Which department/division manages day-to-day operations?
- Internal organizational structure
Example:
- `responsible_legal_entity`: Stichting Rijksmuseum (legal foundation)
- `managing_unit`: Paintings Department (internal unit)
**SPARQL Query Pattern**:
```sparql

required: true
description: >-
Custodian legal entity that bears LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY for this collection.
**TOOI Definition**: "Overheidsorganisatie die de wettelijke verantwoordelijkheid
draagt voor de inhoud (strekking) van het informatieobject"
Maps information objects (collections) to the legal entity (organization or person)
that has formal legal accountability for their custody, preservation, and management.
**Requirements**:
- MUST reference a CustodianLegalStatus instance (formal legal entity)
- Legal entity MUST have registration_numbers (unless natural person)
- Legal responsibility MUST be documented (see legal_responsibility_basis)
**Temporal Consistency**:
- Collection valid_from MUST be >= legal_entity.registration_date
- Collection valid_to MUST be <= legal_entity.dissolution_date (if dissolved)
- During custody transfers, create NEW LegalResponsibilityCollection instance
**Bidirectional Relationship**:
- **Forward**: LegalResponsibilityCollection → CustodianLegalStatus (responsible_legal_entity)
- **Reverse**: CustodianLegalStatus → LegalResponsibilityCollection (collections_under_responsibility)
**Distinction from refers_to_custodian**:
- `responsible_legal_entity`: Points to LEGAL ASPECT (CustodianLegalStatus)
- `refers_to_custodian`: Points to HUB (Custodian)
Both link to the SAME custodian but different aspects:
```yaml
LegalResponsibilityCollection:
responsible_legal_entity: ".../legal/rijksmuseum-foundation" # Legal aspect
refers_to_custodian: ".../custodian/nl-nh-ams-m-rm-q190804" # Hub
```
examples:
- value: "https://nde.nl/ontology/hc/legal/nha-organization"
description: "Noord-Hollands Archief foundation as responsible legal entity"
- value: "https://nde.nl/ontology/hc/legal/rijksmuseum-foundation"
description: "Stichting Rijksmuseum as legally responsible custodian"
legal_responsibility_basis:
slot_uri: dcterms:conformsTo
range: string
required: true
description: >-
Legal basis establishing the organization's responsibility for this collection.
Documents the statutory, regulatory, or contractual foundation for legal accountability.
**Examples**:
- "Archiefwet 1995 (Dutch Archives Act)"
- "Erfgoedwet (Heritage Act) + Foundation statute"
- "Municipal charter Article 5.2: Archive custody responsibilities"
- "Donation deed dated 1923-05-15: Wallace Collection trust agreement"
- "UNESCO Convention on Intangible Cultural Heritage (2003)"
**Use Cases**:
1. **Statutory Responsibility**: Government archives legally mandated by law
2. **Contractual Responsibility**: Museum collections held under trust agreements
3. **Regulatory Responsibility**: University archives required by accreditation
4. **International Responsibility**: UNESCO World Heritage site management obligations
**Related Properties**:
- legal_responsibility_basis: WHAT establishes responsibility? (statute, contract, regulation)
- responsible_legal_entity: WHO is responsible? (legal entity)
- valid_from/valid_to: WHEN is responsibility valid? (temporal extent)
examples:
- value: "Archiefwet 1995, Article 41: Provincial archives shall preserve government records"
description: "Statutory basis for provincial archive responsibility"
- value: "Testamentary bequest 1897-12-20: Teylers Museum trust deed"
description: "Contractual basis for museum collection custody"
legal_responsibility_start_date:
slot_uri: prov:generatedAtTime
range: date
required: false
description: >-
Date when legal responsibility for this collection began.
May differ from collection.valid_from (when collection itself was created).
**Scenarios**:
- **Founding Collection**: Start date = collection creation date
- Example: National archive founded 1802, collection starts 1802
- **Custody Transfer**: Start date = transfer date (≠ collection creation)
- Example: Collection created 1600s, legal responsibility transferred to NHA in 2001
- **Statutory Change**: Start date = law effective date
- Example: New law in 2010 assigns responsibility for existing 1800s collection
**Relation to valid_from**:
- `valid_from`: When collection EXISTED as heritage materials
- `legal_responsibility_start_date`: When LEGAL ACCOUNTABILITY began
These may be different! Example:
```yaml
temporal_coverage: "1600-01-01/1800-12-31" # Materials date from 17th-18th centuries
valid_from: "1910-01-01" # Formally accessioned as collection in 1910
legal_responsibility_start_date: "2001-01-01" # Legal responsibility transferred in 2001
```
examples:
- value: "2001-01-01"
description: "Legal responsibility transferred when NHA formed from merger"
- value: "1885-07-01"
description: "Legal responsibility established at Rijksmuseum founding"
legal_responsibility_end_date:
slot_uri: prov:invalidatedAtTime
range: date
required: false
description: >-
Date when legal responsibility for this collection ended (if applicable).
**Scenarios**:
- **Custody Transfer**: Responsibility transferred to another legal entity
- **Collection Deaccessioned**: Collection sold, destroyed, or dispersed
- **Entity Dissolution**: Responsible entity dissolved (responsibility must transfer)
- **Statutory Change**: Law changed, responsibility removed or transferred
**Requirements**:
- If legal_responsibility_end_date is set, MUST document transfer in custody_history
- If responsible_legal_entity dissolved, MUST set end date <= dissolution_date
**Relation to valid_to**:
- `valid_to`: When collection CEASED TO EXIST as heritage materials
- `legal_responsibility_end_date`: When LEGAL ACCOUNTABILITY ended
Example:
```yaml
valid_to: null # Collection still exists
legal_responsibility_end_date: "2001-01-01" # But responsibility transferred
custody_history:
- transfer_date: "2001-01-01"
from_entity: ".../legal/haarlem-municipality"
to_entity: ".../legal/nha-organization"
transfer_reason: "Merger of Gemeentearchief into NHA"
```
examples:
- value: "2001-01-01"
description: "Legal responsibility ended when collection transferred to NHA"
- value: "1950-05-15"
description: "Collection sold at auction, legal responsibility terminated"
refers_to_custodian:
# Inherited from CustodianCollection but clarified for legal responsibility context
description: >-
Links this collection aspect back to the Custodian hub it represents.
**Dual Linking Pattern**:
- `refers_to_custodian`: Links to CUSTODIAN HUB (Custodian class)
- `responsible_legal_entity`: Links to LEGAL ASPECT (CustodianLegalStatus class)
Both reference the SAME custodian but different levels of abstraction:
```yaml
LegalResponsibilityCollection:
# Hub reference (abstract identifier)
refers_to_custodian: "https://nde.nl/ontology/hc/nl-nh-ams-m-rm-q190804"
# Legal aspect reference (specific legal entity)
responsible_legal_entity: "https://nde.nl/ontology/hc/legal/rijksmuseum-foundation"
# Both ultimately refer to Rijksmuseum, but:
# - refers_to_custodian: Stable hub identifier (GHCID-based URI)
# - responsible_legal_entity: Specific legal form/registration (may change over time)
```
**Navigation Patterns**:
1. **Collection → Hub → All Aspects**:
```sparql
?collection hc:refers_to_custodian ?hub .
?hub hc:has_legal_status ?legal ;
hc:has_name ?name ;
hc:has_place ?place ;
hc:has_collection ?other_collections .
```
2. **Collection → Legal Aspect (Direct)**:
```sparql
?collection tooi:verantwoordelijke ?legal .
?legal hc:legal_name ?name ;
hc:registration_numbers ?reg .
```
**Why Both Properties?**:
- `refers_to_custodian`: STABLE hub identifier (doesn't change with legal reorganizations)
- `responsible_legal_entity`: SPECIFIC legal entity (tracks custody transfers, mergers, reorganizations)
Example: Rijksmuseum collection custody unchanged for 140 years (same hub),
but legal entity underwent multiple reorganizations (legal aspect changed).
