Abstract
As a subelement of Manifestation: extent of manifestation, the proposed element Manifestation: extent of unitary structure is used to record the number of subunits of the same kind in a multiple unit manifestation or the kind of unit in a single unit manifestation. The subunit terms may come from the RDA Carrier Type vocabulary encoding scheme, or more granular terms from the new RDA Unitary Structure vocabulary encoding scheme, developed from terms from the RDA Carrier Extent Unit vocabulary encoding scheme.
