Display of ISBDM metadata
ISBD for Manifestation does not prescribe a selection, order, layout, or punctuation for displaying the values of elements in a description of a manifestation.
The choice of methods for displaying ISBDM metadata in an information retrieval application is influenced by the intended Metadata utility and processing of ISBDM elements.
The value of a has manifestation statement element or element sub-type is at a broad level of granularity, and it may overlap with the value of another similar element.
Specific element labels may be omitted to simplify the display of a set of values.
