Lead Element

Really grappling with this and I don't know why.
What exactly does "Lead Element" mean when it is used in EE?

I want to say it's the first "thing" mentioned or written when writing a citation, but not positive.

TIA

Yes, Wazzy, that's what it means. It's the element you lead off with when you craft a citation.
