In this case, what would be stored in the database, and how?
Is the xml string   "<author> Sung Kim </author><author> B. Shadgar </author>"
stored as value for the Authors property and I have to parse the value of
property?

If the answer is 'Yes', I am just thinking , every time that I have a new
property to proppatch, my application would have to do a kind of merge, if
there was a property with the same name as new property already and then update
the property with new merged value. Is any way to avoid this overhead
(merging) or not?

If I am wrong, please correct me.

Thanks,
Bita.
