    • The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) of the National Library of Medicine (NLM) created the Journal Archiving and Interchange Tag Suite with the intent of providing a common format in which publishers and archives can exchange journal content. The Suite provides a set of XML schema modules that define elements and attributes for describing the textual and graphical content of journal articles as well as some non-article material such as letters, editorials, and book and product reviews.
    • The Suite of Modules
      • The intent of this Tag Suite is to preserve the intellectual content of journals independent of the form in which that content was originally delivered. The Suite has been written as a set of XML schema modules, each of which is a separate physical file. No module is an entire schema by itself, but these modules can be combined into a number of different schemas.
      • The Suite can be used to construct schemas for authoring and archiving journal articles as well as transferring journal articles from publishers to archives and between archives. Details on creating schemas from the Suite are available in the Tag Libraries. Although the full Suite was developed to support electronic production, the structures should be adequate to support some print production as well.
    • The Tag Sets
      • NCBI/NLM has created several distinct Tag Sets from the Suite of Modules, each with its own purpose. A brief overview of each Tag Set is provided below. The full description of each Tag Set is available in its documentation.
      • Archiving and Interchange Tag Set Created to enable an archive to capture as many of the structural and semantic components of existing printed and tagged journal material as conveniently as possible, with no effort made to model any particular sequence or textual format
      • Journal Publishing Tag Set Optimized for the archives that wish to regularize and control their content, not to accept the sequence and arrangement presented to them by any particular publisher
      • Article Authoring Tag Set Designed for authoring new journal articles, where regularization and control of content is important
      • NCBI Book Tag Set Written specifically to describe volumes for the NCBI online libraries
