<app-group> Appendix Group

Container element for one or more appendices (<app> elements).

Usage/Remarks

In the BITS Tag Set, appendices may be contained within this element or merely loose, ungrouped inside the book or book part back matter. The <app-group> element can contain not only appendices but also interspersed bibliographic reference lists.
Related Elements
This element is semantically similar to the JATS Appendix Group element (<app-group>) but BITS allows slightly different content. An Appendix Group (<app-group>) is part of a book part such as a book chapter or a JATS article. It holds a collection of section-level appendices (<app>) and is placed into the back matter (<back>) of the chapter or article. A Book Appendix Group (<book-app-group>) holds a collection of book-part-level appendix elements (<book-app>) that relate to the entire book; this element is found in the back matter of the whole book (<book-back>) rather than within the back matter of a single book part (<back>).
