Resources for publishers of complex content
Why XML?
XML can seem impenetrable, but a key benefit is that it is a human-readable document format—yes, really!
In addition, XML
- Meets government requirements for accessibility and machine readability
- Enables submission to repositories like PubMed Central and NCBI Bookshelf
- Is ideal for single-source publication (HTML, PDF, EPUB, and more)
- Is the standard format for long-term (100+ years) archiving of content
- Enables integration of metadata requirements such as ORCID and Credit
- Allows content to be more richly hyperlinked, both internally and externally
