When in has an object in the dative case and denotes a location, such as a container, room, book or picture, may it be concrete or abstract, it is annotated as LocusLocus.

The basic image schema of containment involves a bounded container (e.g., a box, bowl (de/in#001), or room (de/in#002, de/in#003)), but is also often used with a more extended sense.

These extended senses range from still locational, but less bounded (de/in#005) to a rather abstract notion of containment, such as a container of information (a picture or book, de/in#006).

It is important to note the difference between this locational-stative usage with a dative object and the directional-dynamic usage with an accusative object (in, in).
