pub-id-type

Type of Publication Identifier

Type of publication identifier or the organization or system that defined the identifier.

Usage

This attribute is used in several contexts:
  • as part of the article metadata defined inside the element <article-meta> (for example, on the <article-id> element, which holds an identifier for the entire article, or the <product> element);
  • inside a bibliographic citation element such as <mixed-citation> or <element-citation> (for example, on the <pub-id> element, which identifies a publication cited in a bibliographic reference list);
  • on an object identifier element (<object-id>), which can act as an identifier for any number of different elements;
  • on a related article or other related object (for example, on the element <related-object>); and
  • on an issue or volume identifier (for example, on the <issue-id> element, which identifies an issue).

With these Elements

<article-id>, <issue-id>, <object-id>, <pub-id>, <volume-id>
Value Meaning
Text, numbers, or special characters The type of identifier “doi” or name or type of organization that created the identifier, such as “aggregator”.
Restriction: @pub-id-type is an optional attribute; there is no default.

Suggested usage

Best Practice: The type of identifier should be named for established types (DOIs, SICIs, Codens). If the identifier is not of an established type, name the assigning agency (PMC, OCLC) or type of assigning agency (aggregator, archive, indexing service, publisher) which assigned the identifier. Potential values include:

accession

archive

Identifier assigned by an archive or other repository (generally used with elements <object-id>, <issue-id>, and <volume-id>)
