Multiple small modules in Maven project

I have a project which has multiple small utility classes which I want to package as separate jars, e.g. json-utils, xml-utils etc.

How can I manage this kind of build within a larger project?
Is the only way to do this by declaring each of these classes within a their own separate module? And does each one then need its own subfolder?

Because a project is defined by a unique set of coordinates consisting of a group identifier, an artifact identifier, and a version [...]

So, "yes" to your last two questions.
