2.16. (ETS) coverage
Term URI http://www.ethicsweb.org/dlio/2.6/coverage
Name (ETS) coverage
Label Coverage
Definition The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Source Comments Spatial topic and spatial applicability may be a named place or a location
specified by its geographic coordinates. Temporal topic may be a named period, date, or date range. A jurisdiction may be a named administrative entity or a geographic place to which the resource applies.
Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary such as the Thesaurus of Geographic Names [TGN]. Where appropriate, named places or time periods can be used in preference to numeric identifiers such as sets of coordinates or date ranges

Label Spatial
Definition Spatial characteristics of the resource
Source Comments This sub element is used to provide information on the DLIO coverage that includes spatial locations (such as a region name or geographic coordinates) or jurisdiction (such as a named administrative entity) DLIO-specific Comments Recommended best practice is to select a value from recommended
schemes and to use, where appropriate, named places in preference to numeric identifiers such as sets of coordinates

Label Citation
Definition Information about citation
DLIO-specific Comments When the described resource is a journal article or a single volume in a monographic series, use this element for the bibliographic reference of the resource.
When the described resource is an analytic (book chapter), don't use the element (AGS) Citation, but the element (DC) source for the bibliographic information

2.17.1. (AGS) citationTitle
Term URI http://purl.org/agmes/1.1/citationTitle
Name (AGS) citationTitle
Label Citation Title
Definition The serial title, also known as the key-title, is a name ascribed to a serial publication and is inseparably associated with its ISSN
DLIO-specific Comments The purpose of serial title is to ensure that users can find all issues of a serial under one form of the serial title (journal or monographic series).
This sub element is a mandatory entry when the resource is part of a serial. A serial is defined as a publication, usually having numerical or chronological label, and intended to be continued indefinitely. It may be made available on any medium and is issued in successive parts.
Citation information is provided in the sub elements (AGS) Citation Title, (ETS) Citation Identifier, (AGS) Citation Number and (AGS) Citation Chronology.
Recommended best practice for selecting Serial Title:
the serial title is a name ascribed to a serial publication and is inseparably associated with its ISSN. It is derived from the title information appearing in the publication, and it will be entered in the original language, transliterated if necessary.
When a serial has two or more different titles appearing on different parts of the publication (cover, title-page, masthead), put them in the repeating elements. The subtitle is not part of the serial title

Label Citation Number
Definition The issue, part or number which denotes a particular issue of a journal, as it appears on the cover. In many cases this indicates a part of a journal volume
DLIO-specific Comments Issue Numbers are denoted differently in different journals, e.g. `part', while some journals are arranged by year, e.g. 12/2004 in which case the year is effectively the volume. Any page numbers go into the sub element (DCTERMS) extent
