Basic Structure of the Full Bibliographic Citation (//fileDesc/sourceDesc/biblFull)

The complete bibliographic information (<biblFull>) within the Source Description contains the title information about the source (<titleStmt>) with the details about title (<title>), author (<author>) and, if applicable, publisher/translator (<editor>) of the work. In addition, the <biblFull> element contains information on the type of edition (<editionStmt>) as well as notes on the number of pages of the underlying volume (<extent>), on the surrounding conditions of the text edition (<publicationStmt>) and, in the case of dependent text editions, on the superordinate journal or series (<seriesStmt>).
