Having just marked up five book reviews for ScanCan in P4, I'm coming to the first instance of a book review for the teiJournal system, and I'm anxious to avoid the error-prone repetition that the old system suffers from. I'll document all my steps here:

• A book review is a little odd in that it has two titles: the title of the review, and the title of the book itself. It also needs to have a solid encoding of the bibliographical information relating to the book being reviewed, and ideally this info is only encoded in one place. I've elected to place it in a <biblStruct> element directly inside the main article title (<title level="a">). This is a provisional decision; I'm still not sure how I'd handle the range of possible situations. I imagine, though, that this setup will handle three situations: where there's one book, where there's more than one book (just two <biblStruct>s, and where there's an actual title for the review that isn't the same as the book(s) reviewed; in the last case, I'll probably just add text before the first <biblStruct>, and have the XSLT detect that text and respond accordingly.
• There are two levels of affiliation information, short and long (the print volume includes a section with long affiliations). The <affiliation> tag itself doesn't allow @type (why? this seems arbitrary), so I've elected simply to use two tags, with the short annotation first, and the long one second.
