<std-meta> NISO STS Standard Metadata

This element is a container element for metadata specific to or produced by a standards-producing organization (such as ISO or an SDO) that is publishing or adopting a standard. This element contains any organization-specific overrides to the metadata described for the whole standards document (<std-doc-meta>) as well as the organization-specific metadata for one standards-producing organization.

Usage/Remarks

This element is new in NISO STS, not derived from ISO STS. This tag suite retains the three metadata containers to hold standards organization metadata that were used in ISO-STS: <iso-meta> (metadata concerning ISO itself), <nat-meta> (metadata concerning an ISO-related national standards body), and <reg-meta> (metadata concerning an ISO-related regional standards body). The new NISO STS element <std-meta> may be used to describe:
  • organizations such as SDOs that are not part of the ISO infrastructure and thus have never used any of the three ISO-related metadata elements, or
  • any ISO-related standards organization, for which <std-meta> can replace any of the three ISO-related STS metadata container elements.
Design Concept
One of the goals of the original NISO STS effort was to produce a metadata model for standards documents that was less ISO-specific than the ISO-related metadata models (<iso-meta>, <reg-meta>, and <nat-meta>). Design goals for this new metadata model (<std-meta>) included the following:
  • The model for <std-meta> should be enabling not enforcing. This means that organizations desiring tighter control will need to create a more restrictive subset or restrict content in another processing layer, for example, using Schematron.
  • The new metadata model must not interfere with current ISO STS processing; any document valid to ISO STS 1.1 should still be valid to current NISO STS.
Related Elements
The element <std-meta> is the fourth of the organization-describing metadata elements with: <iso-meta>, <reg-meta>, and <nat-meta>.
