HighWire’s journals hosting solution JCORE can now transform XML to industry standard Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS) XML version 1.3, the latest version. This means that publishers using the platform can now seamlessly comply with the specifications of this interoperable standard.
The British Medical Journal (BMJ) is the first JCORE publisher to offer the JATS 1.3 download for all of their OA content which includes over 57,000 articles. This option may be attractive to BMJ and other publishers as the ability to download full text in a machine readable format is one of the strong recommendations made by Coalition S within the Plan S Principles and Implementation guidance for publishers.
HighWire plays an active role in the development and maintenance of the JATS standard, as Senior Software Engineer and Content Architect Nick Nunes participates on the JATS4R (or JATS for reuse) committee, and also played a key role in developing and delivering this new feature for JCORE.
