Container element for any series information used in a bibliographic reference (<citation> or <nlm-citation>)
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. Similarly, some issues of journals are part of publishing series; within a bibliographic reference, this series information can be tagged using the <series> element.
