Could somebody explain to me how to use the work, works, and header
elements?
If I just have a regular old Bible, where do I put my metadata? In a
<work> element within <header>?
If I have a collection of works that I'm encoding within a single
document, do I put metadata within <work> elements within <works> and then
<works> within <header>? Shouldn't <work> and <works> be mutually
exclusive within <header> rather than having <work> mandatory & unbounded
and <works> optional? Or does <work> always refer to the whole docuemnt
(e.g. an anthology) while <works> includes the component works--in which
case, shouldn't <work> be limited to one instance in the <header>?
When would I have cause to use the metadata elements within header itself
rather than in an embedded <work>?
