<issue>

Issue Number

Remarks

The <issue> element is primarily used in bibliographic references (<element-citation> and <mixed-citation>) where it indicates the issue in which the cited material was published.

It a work was published in a joint issue “Iss. 2-3”, both issue numbers should be placed into a single <issue> element: <issue>1-2</issue>.
