(This Foreword is not part of ANSI/NISO Z39.102-2017, STS: Standards Tag Suite (Version 1.0). It is included for information only.) |
This is the first edition of this standard. In addition to the element and attribute descriptions, two standards tag sets have been provided as part of NISO STS.
This NISO STS standard is based on the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Standard Tag Set (ISO STS, version 1.1). NISO STS 1.0 is a fully backwards-compatible superset of ISO STS 1.1. Therefore, any document that is valid to ISO STS 1.1 will be valid to NISO STS 1.0, by changing only the document type declaration (or other schema identification mechanism) and the attribute on the top level element (<standard>).
ISO STS was based on version 0.4 (Publishing) of the Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS), now known in its updated form as ANSI/NISO Z39.96. The current NISO STS standard is based on ANSI/NISO Z39.96-2015, which is based on the National Library of Medicine (NLM) Journal Archiving and Interchange Tag Suite, created by The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov of the National Library of Medicine (NLM): https://www.nlm.nih.gov. The NLM Tag Suite was developed as an update of a Document Type Definition (DTD) used by the NCBI/NLM PubMed Central project to archive life science journals from a variety of sources. Input and support from Harvard University Libraries, as well as support from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and collaboration with Inera, Inc. and Mulberry Technologies, Inc., allowed the scope of that project to be broadened and resulted in the NLM Journal Archiving and Interchange Tag Suite.
Work on the NISO STS models and documentation, in support of NISO and the NISO STS Committee, was performed by Mulberry Technologies, Inc. Mulberry Technologies’ work was supported by ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) and ASTM International.
As JATS 1.0 was released by ANSI/NISO in August 2012 and immediately put into continuous maintenance mode, so is the intent with NISO STS. Information, including action minutes from the meetings that have led to the release of STS version 1.0, may be found at: http://www.niso.org/workrooms/sts/.
If a provision of the standard is proposed for addition, deletion, or modification, the text of the provision must be submitted in writing. Comments or proposals for revision to any part of the standard may be submitted to NISO at any time. When possible, such proposals should be accompanied by examples. Submissions must be accompanied by the submitter’s name, affiliation, telephone number, and email address. Comments may be submitted to NISO online at: http://www.niso.org/workrooms/sts/. The STS Standing Committee will review suggestions at least once a year.

During the course of the NISO STS Committee work, a few committee members departed for various reasons. We would like to acknowledge appreciation for their contributions, and for contributions by all the NISO STS Committee Members. Original members who were no longer with the Steering or Technical Committees at the time of the vote include Matt Brown, BSI Standards Limited; Keith Doubleday, IHS; Becky Fadik, SAE International; and Karen Reczek, National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST). The STS Working Group particularly appreciates the helpful contributions of the late Linda Guard of U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention, who was a member of the group for several months at the start of the work. NISO and the working group are grateful to ISO for its support of this project. Special thanks are due to Trevor Vyze, David Ratcliffe, Laurent Galichet, and Serge Juillerat. The working group thanks Todd Carpenter, Nettie Lagace, and the staff of NISO for their help and support in this project.
