<custom-meta>

Custom Metadata

Some journal tag sets allow for metadata above and beyond that which can be specified by this Tag Set. This element is used to capture a metadata element that has not been defined explicitly in the models for this Tag Set, so that the intellectual content will not be lost.

Remarks

The <custom-meta> element allows for an infinite variety of name/value pairs, with few constraints on the length or content of the value. This element will probably be used for special cases, product-specific material, or other unusual metadata, for example, the journal-history information preserved in at least one publisher’s Tag Set.
