<issue-title-group> Issue Title Group

Grouping element to associate issue title metadata (such as the issue title and subtitle) for a single issue.
Related Elements
In the metadata for most articles, there is a single issue number (<issue>) and a single volume number (<volume>) that describe where the article was published. These elements are located directly inside <article-meta>. However, some articles are published in more than one issue or in an issue that has more than one issue number. For these rare cases, a grouping element (<issue-title-group>) has been added, which associates issue title metadata (such as the issue title and subtitle) for a single issue. The element is repeatable to gather the issue title metadata for multiple issues.
There is also a larger-scale grouping element (<volume-issue-group>) to handle the rare cases where an article has been published as part of more than one volume/issue pair. This element keeps related volume and issue information together, and is allowed to repeat to describe multiple volume/issues.
