Can someone explain to me how to deal with mapping the following to
MODS?
<keyword>geography</keyword>
<keyword>public space</keyword>
<keyword>Russia</keyword>
In others words, we have data that represents "keyword" categories, but
there is only one element; it is totally flat. A tool will do the
transformation, so no human interpretation involved.
How best to do this?
Options I see are:
1)
<subject>
<topic>geography</topic>
</subject>
<subject>
<topic>public space</topic>
</subject>
<subject>
<topic>Russia</topic>
</subject>
2)
<subject>
<topic>geography</topic>
<topic>public space</topic>
<topic>Russia</topic>
</subject>
My hunch is the correct answer is really context-specific, and so we
have to flip a coin. Is that right?
