I think that in the library world of integrating resources - the date of
access would be recorded and given as at least starting from the date viewed
- (Marc lingo = 362 tag)

I think the date that the item was accessed - and possibly inferred that
that is when the item was viewed to create the MODS record - is important to
have in a clearly defined area in the record.

The multiple urls and the date access is an interesting problem. The
various urls given in the MODS record are given attributes or indications of
what they are - right? e.g. Archived site http://bla.bla.edu - Or given in
the related item area of the record? I would think that the  main identifier
field has the url for the basic resource that is being described.

Maybe I am thinking too narrowly.

I can imagine the "date accessed" being an attribute of the URL, rather
than being treated as an attribute of the citation as a whole. You may
also have a bibliographic date on the item. So if I cite a web page that
has a copyright date of 2002, but I access that page on May 3, 2003,
then the date of the cited document is 2002, but I am authenticating the
URL only as of May 3, 2003. In a sense, this latter date often
substitutes for a date of publication when the document itself gives no
indication of a publication date, but in fact it is information about
the URL in my mind. The publication would actually be "n.d." in library
parlance -- "no date."
