Re: [jats-list] book-volume-number vs. volume-in-collection/volume-number

Great, thank you!

This was my first idea too, but then I thought of one book (one ISBN) was to
be physically published in multiple versions the XML would still be one.
Instead of 2 or 3, but I can see how this might still be the case.

Betreff: Re: [jats-list] book-volume-number vs.
volume-in-collection/volume-number

A book is a logical construct that may be physically several volumes. In this
case, book-meta/book-volume-number is available to record the volume of a
multi-volume book.

A collection is a logical construct that is (usually) several books. In this
case, collection-meta/volume-in-collection/volume-number would hold the number
of this "book" in the collection.

So, if an object is a 2-volume "book" that is the 3rd item in a collection,
the metadata for the second volume of that "book" would include:
   collection-meta/volume-in-collection/volume-number  3
   book-meta/book-volume-number 2

Does that help?
