Standard Adoption Document
A wrapper for a document-level element that may contain its own metadata, front matter, and back matter, and that will contain, in addition, one or more complete standards (<standard>) or other adoptions. When a standard is adopted, sometimes the adopting organization wraps their own metadata, front matter, and back matter around a standard, producing a combined, nested document.
Remarks
Nested Standards Model: One of the original goals of NISO STS was to allow (as much as possible) the components within a standards document to be tagged in reading order, that is, in the order in which they occur within the document. Adoption (a wrapper around standards) was created with that in mind, so that the metadata and front matter belonging to an adoption may occur before all parts of the standard being adopted or both before and after the entirety of the standard being adopted.
As an example, the standard “DIN EN ISO 1012” contains an ISO standard, which was adopted by EN, which was then adopted by DIN. The outer wrapper adoption contains information created by DIN (including superseding notes), which is wrapped around the adoption created by EN, which in turn is wrapped around the ISO standard.
Components of an Adoption: A standard adoption document (<adoption>) is a wrapper for one or more standards being adopted and some amount of adopting metadata and prose. An adoption document <adoption> may be divided into several components:
- An <adoption-front> element, which contains document-level and adoption-level metadata, possibly with notes and prose sections;
- An optional adopting back matter element (<back>) provided by the adopting organization, which contains annexes in the local language or additional requirements or notes (Note: Some adopting organizations place all their adoption material, including adoption-specific back matter, before the standard they are adopting; others place the adoption-specific back matter after the standard being adopted. The NISO STS model for <adoption> allows either location to be used, though not both at once.);
- The contents of the <adoption> that contain or point to the standard being adopted. This may include one or more of the following:
- One or more full standards (<standard>)
- One or more full adoptions (<adoption>)
- One or more <xi:include> elements
- One or more <std-xref> elements
- An optional adopting back matter element (<back>) provided by the adopting organization, which contains annexes in the local language or additional requirements or notes. (Note: Some adopting organizations place all their adoption material, including adoption-specific back matter, before the standard they are adopting; others place the adoption-specific back matter after the standard being adopted. The NISO STS model for <adoption> allows either location to be used, though not both at once.)
