Born digital.
Most
MoEML documents, or significant fragments with xml:id attributes, can
be addressed using the mol: prefix and accessed through the web application
with their id + .xml.
The molagas prefix points to the shape representation of a location on
MoEML’s OpenLayers3-based
rendering of the Agas Map.

repository. Note that this is a subscription service, and may not be accessible to those
accessing it from locations outside member institutions.

English Broadside Ballad Archive (EBBA).
The mdt (
MoEML Document Type) prefix used on catRef/target points
to a central taxonomy in the includes file.
The mdtlist (
MoEML Document Type listing) prefix used in linking attributes points to a listings page constructed from a category in the central MDT taxonomy in the includes file. There are two variants, one with the plain xml:id of the category, meaning all documents in the specified category, and one with the suffix _subcategories, meaning all subcategories of the category.
The molgls (
MoEML gloss) prefix used on term/corresp points
to a a glossary entry in the GLOSS1.xml file.
This molvariant prefix is used on ref/target attributes during automated
generation of gazetteer index files. It points to an element in the generated variant spellings
listing file which lists all documents which contain a particular spelling variant for a
location.
This molajax prefix is used on ref/target attributes during the static build
process, to specify links which point to MoEML resources which should not be loaded into the source
page during standalone processing; instead, these should be turned into links to the XML source
documents, and at HTML page load time, these should be turned into AJAX calls. This is to handle
the scenario in which a page such as an A-Z index of the whole site would end up containing
virtually the whole site inside itself.
The molstow prefix is used on facs attributes to link to the HCMC verison of the Stow facsimiles.
Usually the first group is the year (1633) and then last is the image number (0001).
Our editorial and encoding practices are documented in detail in the Praxis section of our website.
