<std-org> Standards Organization Description

A container element to hold the organization name, abbreviated name, and location information for one of the standards organizations responsible for publishing or adopting the standard.

Usage/Remarks

The <std-org> element provides a descriptive name and location information about the publisher/adopter of a standards document, in the same way that the element <publisher> in JATS provides name and location information concerning the publisher of a journal article.
One Organization Per Element
There may be several standards organizations responsible for a standards document, and each will be named in a separate <std-org> element.
Part Played
The @std-org-role attribute can be used to record what part the standards organization played in the standard, such as “lead”, “co-producer”, etc.
Related Elements
Several elements inside the container element <std-org> provide the name and location of a publishing or adopting standards organization:
  • <std-org-name> provides an official, typically longer, name of an organization (“International Business Machinery”).
  • <std-org-abbrev> provides a short name or acronym for the organization (“IBM”).
  • <std-org-loc> names one or more locations where the organization operates, which may be as small as a city name or may include a complete address.
SDO, Originator, and SDO-Organization: The element <std-org-abbrev> inside <std-org> can replace both the <originator> element and the <sdo> element used in earlier ISO STS processing.
