We are working on the correction to that 2011 version and will upload it soon. In addition, we are happy to let you know that we are in the process of preparing new versions of the MARC Authority > MADS 2.1 XSLTs (2023 version), which will be released shortly on the MADS website here: https://www.loc.gov/standards/mads/.

As you can see, in a given item the name element shows up in as the first subelement, but then the title element also includes the author's name, but purely the value from subfield 'a' -- "Montgomery, L.M." but no "(Lucy Maud)" or her years of birth and death. I suspect this may be an error in the .xsl file, but it could [...] Meehleib, Tracy2023-08-14T11:45:43+00:002023-08-14T11:45:43+00:00MODS 3.8 Schema Update 20230811https://listserv.loc.gov/cgi-bin/wa?A2=MODS;7c78fde5.2308Hi All,<br><br>We discovered minor error in the MODS 3.8 schema that was causing an error when validating the schema using LibXML.

My understanding is that LC's IT group has been working on resolving this issue for the last 2 weeks-and still is. We are trying to get this issue resolved as a soon as possible and will provide periodic updates re: any progress on this MODS listserv. Again, apologies for any inconvenience this is causing you.
