Sample Data: A BibliographyThis chapter uses bibliography data to illustrate the basic features of XQuery. The data used is taken from the XML Query Use Cases, Use Case "XMP," and originally appeared in [EXEMPLARS]. We have modified the data slightly to illustrate some of the points to be made. The data used appears in Listing 1.1.

The data for this example was created using a DTD, which specifies that a bibliography is a sequence of books, each book has a title, publication year (as an attribute), an author or an editor, a publisher, and a price, and each author or editor has a first and a last name, and an editor has an affiliation. Listing 1.2 provides the DTD for our example.
