One of the presses seeking to use Thoth, L'Harmattan Open Access, has publications in a variety of European languages (incl. Hungarian, English, Slovakian, etc.). Their existing metadata catalogue includes records that also store metadata in multiple languages (e.g. Hungarian- next to English-language metadata sets for a book published in Hungarian)
Describe the solution you'd like
Extend Thoth's data model to enable the recording of parallel versions of metadata in x number of languages.
Additional context
Also relevant to other presses and our collaboration with PKP - Alec Smecher noted that OMP encourages the use e.g. of multilingual titles, abstracts, etc.
