This article is about the digitization of the Repertorium Biblicum Medii Aevi, an eleven-volume standard reference work to Western biblical apocrypha and commentaries of the Middle Ages. First of all, the nature of the Repertorium and its overall structure will be outlined, then the structure of a single entry will be discussed, followed by some considerations for encoding the structure. The paper will conclude with a report about how an appropriate Document Type Definition (DTD) was selected.
