Alphabetical Index of MADS Elements and Subelements

The following lists all of the elements and subelements in MADS in alphabetical order. Bracketed text following an element indicates whether it is a root or core metadata element. For subelements, the hierarachy of the subelement is given after the hyphen (in ascending order). Some subelements appear in more than one hierarchy, e.g. in <authority>, <related>, and <variant> these are listed separately for each different element hierarchy.
