<edition> Edition Statement, Cited

The full edition statement for a cited or referenced publication.

Usage/Remarks

The content of this element may be a simple edition number (such as “<edition>3</edition>” or “<edition>A</edition>”). More complex edition statements may contain a textual statement (“Third print edition revised”), the edition number as an ordinal (“3rd” or “3rd edition”), or superscripted ordinals (“4<sup>th</sup>” “4<sup>th</sup> digital edition”). Whether or not the content is more than a simple number, the @designator attribute of this element can be used to hold the simple numerical or alphabetic edition number (<edition designator="3">3rd Edition reprinted</edition>).
This element is used in bibliographic references (<element-citation> and <mixed-citation>).
