This document contains a listing of elements and their related attributes in MODS Version 3.2 with values or value sources where applicable. It is an "outline" of the schema. Items highlighted in red indicate changes made to MODS in Version 3.2.
All elements and attributes are optional. Attributes are not in a mandated sequence and not repeatable (per XML rules). "Ordered" below means the subelements must occur in the order given. All elements and subelements are repeatable.
"Authority" attributes are either followed by codes for authority lists (e.g., iso639-2b) or "see" references that link to documents that contain codes for identifying authority lists.
For additional information about any MODS elements, please see the MODS User Guidelines.
