 Robert A. Baron, MUSEUM ACCESSION LEDGERS
Because accession ledgers establish the legal sequence of museum acquisitions, they must be regarded as documents that certify the accessioned objects recorded, much as a banknote or stock certificate stands for an incurred debt.
Accession registers should consist of sequentially numbered volumes with the period of activity plainly written on the spine or cover and repeated on a title-page.
Obviously card-catalogues cannot be used as the primary record of accession because they cannot document the end of a series of assigned numbers, because their order is subject to corruption and because their elements are subject to damage or loss.

 WTO Accession
In addition to their schedule of commitments undertaken at the time of accession, governments agree to submit to a monitoring process, the Trade Policy Review Mechanism (TPRM), which ensures compliance with WTO rules, enhances transparency, and builds confidence that applicants will be held accountable for the commitments they take on.

A state seeking accession to the WTO must recognize, however, that the TPRM process may be a rough one, and that fulfilling the requirements of the TPRM report process does represent a burden on analytical resources.

 Analysis of David and Solomon's Accession Histories
So both histories of the Accession of David and that of Solomon are integrated as two parts of the "Accession" (!) of the Ark from the humiliation of Philistine captivity until the final exaltation in Solomon's Temple.
The Accession of David is disturbed by the reign of Saul and his constant persecutions of David; also is the Succession of Solomon disturbed by the revolt of Absalom, which forced David to flee, just as he had fled from Saul.
So David's Accession History (without the satiric plagiarizing) was written during David's reign (eleventh century BC), and Solomon's Accession History resumed David's, duplicated it (satiric plagiarizing) and brought it to its final triumph with the transport of the Ark to the Temple of Solomon.

 PsycINFO | History of the Accession Number Format
Prior to the 1998 reload, these records were given an accession number in the same format, but not associated with print volume and abstract numbers.
Accession numbers needed to be structured to allow for releasing data more frequently than the monthly cycle of print publishing, and for coverage of a wider variety of source materials in the electronic product than in the print PA.
Mapping existing accession numbers to the current format was complicated, and we could not always ensure that accession-number components converted from older records would have the same meaning as in new records.

 NLM Technical Bulletin, November-December 2004, Accession Number Shelving of Non-Print Materials
The format of the accession number for non-print monographs is the acquisition year (e.g., 2004, 2005) and the identifier "AV", followed by a four-digit accession number.

Bibliographic records for non-print monographs in LocatorPlus may display new non-print accession numbers in addition to the alternative subject classification numbers in the MARC 21 field on citations created or maintained in the database, as well as in records distributed to licensees of Catfile and CatfilePlus, as of October 1, 2004.

Even though the terms of China's accession agreement are directed at the opening of China's market to WTO members' industries, China's accession agreement also includes several safeguard mechanisms designed to prevent injury that U.S. or other WTO members' industries and workers might experience based on unfair trade practices or import surges.

 Crossing the Bosporus: Turkey's Accession to the European Union
In fact, although the pending decision by member states is "only" about the opening of formal accession negotiations, the discussion has focused rather on the outcome (full EU membership) than the process itself.
Accordingly, accession negotiations could be formally opened under the British EU presidency in the second half of 2005, but with a full commitment to eventual membership if all the conditions are met: No "plan B" or hidden reservations, in other words.
On the Turkish side: Accession negotiations are a markedly asymmetric process, in which the EU sets (practically dictates) conditions, benchmarks and deadlines.

VERSION is made of the accession number of the database record followed by a dot and a version number (and is therefore sometimes referred to as the "accession.version")

It is also designed to show a relationship between a sequence identification number and the accession number of the record in which it is found.
