<access-date>

Access Date for Cited Work

Definition

The date on which the work which is cited was examined

Remarks

Some online resources are changing so quickly that a citation to the resource is not complete without the date on which the cited resource was examined, since a day before or a day later, the relevant material might be different.

For extensive examples of formatted <nlm-citation>s including use of <access-date>s in <nlm-citation>s, see: Sample PubMed Central Citations. To see tagged versions of these examples, see: Sample PubMed Central Citations - XML Tagged.

Attribute

Related Elements

The related element <time-stamp> is used to record a time stamp that was found on the resource when it was examined, not the date when the researcher examined the cited resource. The time stamp is applied to the resource by its creators, usually as a version indicator.
