Hello all-

The MODS 3.0 user guide gives the following guidance for usage of the
subject/hierarchicalGeographic/county element:

<county>
---Includes the largest local administrative unit in various countries,
e.g. England. 

I'm intrepreting this to mean that the <county> element is not
appropriate for describing a county within a U.S. state - is that a
correct interpretation? 

If so, if I were to want to include county information for a U.S.
location, in addition to country, state, and city (I'm not positive I
want to do this, but I've got it, so maybe it's best to stick it in...),
where would it go?

Thanks!

Jenn
