This is an interesting solution -- as far as I know the 510 was only
used for citation services (abstracting and indexing databases) and it
has fallen into disuse. Perhaps it could be re-purposed in MODS.

How it was used: It was used only in serials records and it listed the
indexing services that covered all or some of that serial title. If you
were interested in a serial you could look up its record and see what
indexing services would have indexed articles from that journal.

What it would need: The 510 has very few subfields: only the name of the
indexing service publication and its ISSN. It would have to be greatly
expanded to carry a complete citation to another document.
