Description

Serialize repository, municipality, and series as a JSON array string qualifiedSeries.

Serialize repository, municipality, and series as a JSON array string qualifiedSeries.

Limitations and assumptions

  • This preserves literal source scopes without normalizing names or authenticating an archival collection.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Consult the source edition and relevant community or scholarly guidance before interpreting or reusing the material.
