The basic structure of a MONET-xml is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<document xmlns="https://schema.dedicon.nl/monet/v2"
          xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
          xmlns:m="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"
          xsi:schemaLocation="https://schema.dedicon.nl/monet/v2 monet.xsd">
  <metadata>
    <meta name="dc:identifier" schema="Dublin Core">urn:uuid:monet-dedicon-000001</meta>
    <meta name="dc:title"      schema="Dublin Core">Voorbeeldboek</meta>
    <meta name="dc:language"   schema="Dublin Core">nl-NL</meta>
  </metadata>
  <publication type="textBook" xml:lang="nl-NL">
    <cover>
      <frontcover/>
      <backcover/>
      <jacketcopy/>
    </cover>
    <body>
      <frontmatter>
        <section level="1" role="titlePage"/>
      </frontmatter>
      <bodymatter>
        <section level="1" role="chapter"/>
      </bodymatter>
    </body>
  </publication>
</document>

There is a fixed set of elements that may be used in a MONET-xml. These valid elements are listed on this website under ‘Elements’. Do not use other elements than mentioned in this list.
