   NISO Publishes Standards Tag Suite (NISO STS) Standard
   Provides common format for exchanging standards content
   Baltimore, MD - October 9, 2017 - The National Information Standards
   Organization (NISO) announces the publication of a new American National
   Standard, [4]STS: Standards Tag Suite, ANSI/NISO Z39.102-2017. The purpose
   of this "standard for standards," which will be known as NISO STS, is to
   define a suite of XML elements and attributes that describes the full-text
   content and metadata of standards. NISO STS provides a common format that
   preserves intellectual content of standards independent of the form in which
   that content was originally delivered.
   This standard includes two implementations: the Interchange Tag Set and the
   Extended Tag Set. These tag sets, built from the elements and attributes
   defined in the Suite, provide models for standards publishing and
   interoperability. NISO STS builds upon the existing, widely used standard
   for journal publishers, [5]ANSI/NISO Z39.96-2015, JATS: Journal Article Tag
   Suite, and a variant of JATS, ISOSTS, the [6]International Organization for
   Standardization's (ISO) version of STS created in 2011. NISO STS has
   benefited from this robust foundation and broad industry expertise.
   Bruce Rosenblum, CEO of Inera, Inc. and co-chair of the NISO STS Working
   Group, comments that the standard will positively impact the bottom line of
   standards publishers and their vendors. "Investment in publishing technology
   is a significant cost," says Rosenblum. "When companies don't 'speak the
   same language,' costs remain high and innovation is stifled. NISO STS allows
   all parties to leverage a common investment and spread costs over a larger
   number of organizations, which will in turn lower costs of software and
   services for everyone."
   Robert Wheeler, ASME Director of Publishing Technologies and co-chair of the
   NISO STS working group, welcomes the interoperability that NISO STS enables
   in the market. "An agreed-upon XML tag set for standards will improve
   communication throughout the entire standards world, from creators to end
   users," comments Wheeler. "Greater interoperability between standards
   publishers and the standards distribution ecosystem, in particular, will
   ease standards' discovery, use, and adoption, as well as better enable the
   dissemination of new ideas and technologies."
   "Publishing standards in XML per NISO STS will provide a sustainable upgrade
   from the inflexibility of PDF," states NISO Executive Director Todd
   Carpenter. "NISO is proud to provide a platform for better interchange and
   leading-edge publishing processes, which is core to our mission. We welcome
   the efficiencies offered by STS and the improvements it brings to the
