A hierarchically-structured keyword, such as a keywords from a controlled vocabulary.
Related Elements
This Tag Set contains several differently-structured types of keywords:
  • The element <kwd> is used with simple keywords: words or phrases.
  • The element <compound-kwd> is used with multi-part keywords, such as a keyword that is a code-and-term pair.
  • The element <nested-kwd> is used with hierarchical keywords structures, such as taxonomies, to record a portion of a taxonomic hierarchy. Both simple and compound keywords can be nested hierarchically.
Best Practice: In this Tag Set, nested keywords (<nested-kwd>) should be reserved for hierarchical material such as taxonomies. There are a few journal tag sets in which keyword nesting is used to simulate a two-part list. Such a keyword list should be tagged as a <def-list> instead.
