<series>

Series

Definition

Container element for any series information used in a bibliographic reference (<citation>)

Remarks

Within a citation to a non-journal item (for example, a book possibly spanning multiple volumes) the <series> element can contain the unique title of the entire series, as shown in the tagged example below.

The word “series” is used in journal publishing with two very different meanings. The element <series> is used for only one of those meanings and the two elements <series-text> and <series-title> are used only for the other.

Related Elements

Within the article metadata, the <series-title> element names a publishing or in-journal series, and the <series-text> element provides textual description (if any) of the series. The similarly named but unrelated element <series> is a wrapper element to hold any series data mentioned in a bibliographic reference (<citation>).
