Elizabeth,

 

This doesn’t directly answer your question, but I came across this example of EAC in practice—designing a kind of structured version of Wikipedia for creators:

The underlying EAC record can be found here:

They might have used an older version of EAC than the one currently on the books, but it’s the same principle.

 

 

 

Rather than throw students immediately into EAD, I'm using EAC to allow them to get used to working with XML in this way -- and get a feel for oXygen.  Has anyone developed Guidelines for applying EAC in the real world?
