Getting Started
This “Tag Library” provides interactive documentation for the NISO STS 1.0 Tag Suite
that you can access through a Web browser. This document describes all the elements
and attributes that can be used to tag standards in NISO STS and provides tagging
advice and examples.
This Tag Library document includes:
- Short descriptions and usage notes for the elements and attributes,
- Descriptions of relationships among related elements and attributes and direct linking to related components,
- Structural Diagrams, showing the element hierarchy for an article and for complex elements,
- Tagging examples,
- Best practice recommendations,
- Implementation advice,
- Discussion of accessibility and the Tag Suite, and
- Pointers to (non-normative) downloadable versions of DTDs, XSDs, and RNGs that implement the NISO STS Tag Sets.
Getting Started is the first chapter in the Tag Library, and it contains the following sections:

Structure of the Tag Library
|
Describes the sections of the Tag Library and what can be found in each and how to
use the Tag Library to get started learning the tag set.
|
Introduction to NISO STS Tag Sets
|
Provides basic information about the NISO STS Tag Suite. What is the Scope of NISO
STS? What was it designed to do? How are the top-level <standard> and <adoption> elements structured?
|
Root Elements
|
Names the <standard> and <adoption> elements as the root of this XML schema (DTD, XSD, and RNG).
|
Selecting a Model & Schema
|
Describes the different NISO STS schemas and how to choose the right one for your
implementation.
|
Hierarchy Diagrams
|
Tree-like graphical representations of the content of many elements. This can be a
fast, visual way to determine the structure of a standard or of any complex element
within a standard.
