OPEN TELECONFERENCE | FREE AND OPEN TO ALL

Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS)
<https://niso.org/events/2024/11/opentelecon-jats>

Monday, November 18, 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. It is a technical standard
developed by the National Information Standards Organization (NISO) and
approved by the American National Standards Institute Z39.96-2024 (Version
1.4 published in October 2024). The NISO project was a continuation of the
work done by NLM/NCBI, and popularized by the NLM's PubMed Central as a de
facto standard for archiving and interchange of scientific open access
journals and its contents with XML.

In this Open Teleconference, Co-chair of the NISO JATS Standing Committee
Tommie Usdin will join NISO's Keondra Bailey to share an update on the new
revision to this important standard and how it meets the evolving needs and
practices of scholarly publishing.

Speakers: Keondra Bailey, Assistant Standards Program Manager, NISO; Tommie
Usdin, President, Mulberry Technologies
