Solution: As discussed in meeting, we will create two originInfo entries, if the entry contains date value it represents a publisher, otherwise it represents a printer

Example Data

Following bibliographic metadata is currently available:

• Books
• Journals

General Information

• As a rule we can state that every element is mapped with the full path. That means that for every MAB entry a full MODS element will be created. E.g.: every creator will have his own name tag.
• The bibliographic metadata will be transferred to MODS according to the recommendation from the zvdd.
