The README’s opening paragraph, which the architecture page repeats, says that Knowledge Trust Ladder keeps any repository’s scattered knowledge as a collection: catalogued, authenticated and explained, with the trust in every claim left visible.

The architecture page uses the museum word the same way. The registrar keeps each accession, an item added to the collection, documented, with its provenance filed. The docent is the role the poem leaves implicit, because the collection exists for its visitors.
