[XML4Lib] NLM Journal Publishing tag set

[McAulay, Elizabeth]

Hi John,

 

These comments are really useful to me. I'm working on the UCLA
Encyclopedia of Egyptology, which will be a born-digital reference work
comprises of articles, maps, a glossary, and images. I'm working on
encoding the articles with links out to place names, etc. It's
definitely more in the humanities field. 

 

I'd be grateful for your samples!

 

Lisa

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.
