[XML4Lib] NLM Journal Publishing tag set

[Rees, John (NIH/NLM) [E]]

Lisa:
 
I'd be happy to share some sample markup using the NLM book.dtd. There
is also a history.dtd that NCBI created for us specifically for
"historical" works for the NCBI Bookshelf.
 
That said, I use TEI and I've campaigned locally against using the
book.dtd for texts aimed at the humanities audience. It was really built
for medical textbooks and doesn't have a lot of elements you might want,
nor can you leverage any interchange with the humanities computing world
that is all using tei.

	Hi,
	 
	I was wondering whether any one on the list has experience using
any of the NLM Tag Sets. I'm very comfortable with TEI, but have a
project that would like to test using NLM instead. 
	 
	Thanks in advance for any comments and guidance.
