OPEN TELECONFERENCE | FREE AND OPEN TO ALL

Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS) Update
<https://www.niso.org/events/2023/12/opentelecon-jats>

Monday, December 11, 3:00–4:00 pm ET (US/Canada)

The Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS) is an XML format used to describe
scientific literature published online. Developed by NISO and approved by
the American National Standards Institute (Z39.96-2021), the project was a
continuation of the work done by the National Library of Medicine/National
Center for Biotechnology Information and popularized by the NLM's PubMed
Central as a *de facto *standard for the archiving and interchange of
scientific open access journals and their contents. In our next Open
Teleconference, NISO Associate Executive Director Nettie Lagace will join
the co-chairs of the JATS Standing Committee for a discussion of this
important standard and an update on the latest news.

Confirmed speakers: Jeff Beck, Literature Program Head, National Center for
Biotechnology Information (NCBI), and B. Tommie Usdin, President, Mulberry
Technologies, Inc.

Registration is not required for open teleconferences. See our event page
