Usage/Remarks

Ordinals with Volume Numbers: In JATS Authoring journal articles, the volume number element (<volume>) is used only in citations, not as part of the article metadata. If ordinals for such numbers (“nd”, “st”, etc.) need to be recorded, they may be used with <volume> as follows:
  • Inside an element citation (<element-citation>), a volume number with ordinals can be must be tagged inside the volume number: <volume>1st</volume>.
  • Inside a mixed citation (<mixed-citation>), the volume ordinals may be tagged inside the volume number (as just shown) or outside the volume number: <volume>1</volume><sup>st</sup>.
