Subject: [MODS] MODS 3.4 ready for community review


Dear MODS community,

The Library of Congress and the MODS Editorial Committee are happy to 
announce the release of a draft MODS 3.4 Schema for community review. The 
draft Schema itself may be found at 
<http://www.loc.gov/standards/mods/futures/mods-3-4.xsd>, and a list of 
changes it implements from 3.3 is available at 
<http://www.loc.gov/standards/mods/changes-3-4.html>. Draft text to be added 
to the User Guidelines for these new features and a link from the MODS home 
page to the draft Schema will be available soon; watch this list for 
details.

The community review of the MODS 3.4 draft Schema will last one month, until 
May 12, 2010. We hope that various MODS implementers will test this Schema 
in various ways, both trying out the new features and verifying that 
existing 3.x MODS records still validate to the new 3.4 Schema as we intend. 
Testing results, comments, questions, and any other discussion on the 3.4 
Schema should be sent to this email list: [log in to unmask]

We look forward to hearing from you!

Jenn Riley
Chair, MODS Editorial Committee
