fn-type Type of Footnote
Type of information conveyed in the footnote (for example, contributor’s current affiliation,
financial disclosure statement, reprint information).
Usage/Remarks
There are many reasons why the text or metadata of an article might be footnoted.
Where those reasons are known (for example, one of the reasons listed in the suggested
values list below), this attribute can preserve that information. This could be a
means of preserving, for example, that a contributor is on a leave of absence.
OPTIONAL on element: <fn>
Value | Meaning |
---|---|
Text, numbers, or special characters | The type of footnote, where the publisher or archive has given the footnote a named type such as “corresp” to indicate a corresponding author footnote. |
Restriction | @fn-type is an optional attribute; there is no default. |
Suggested usage
Although designed to accept any text as its value, the following are suggested footnote
types. Other types may be given if the semantics of a footnote is not on the list
below:

con

|
corresp
|

|
current-aff
|
Contributor’s current affiliation
|
custom
|
The value “custom” is used in versions of JATS that have a static list of values for
the @fn-type attribute. To add a value to such a list, the footnote is given the @fn-type
“custom” and a separate @custom-type attribute provides the typing value. There is no need for such a value in Archiving,
since there are no restrictions on the value of @fn-type, but “custom” and @custom-type have both been included in Archiving so that documents valid to a stricter version
of the JATS Tag Set will also be valid to Archiving.
