For more than a decade, DocBook has provided a structured markup vocabulary for hardware and software documentation. DocBook is now widely used in both commercial and Open Source environments. DocBook has a very broad element set, and applies to much more than just technical documentation. The DocBook TC is engaged in evolving the suite of DocBook specifications. The community benefits from having a standard, open, interchangeable vocabulary in which to write structured content. DocBook has been, and will continue to be, designed to satisfy this requirement. The OASIS DocBook Sub Committee for Publishers is chartered to develop and maintain official variants of DocBook in support of the publishing industry. Specifically, the subcommittee will focus on schema and stylesheet customizations to support: periodicals as regularly published technical notes or journals, book publishing (such as business, legal, medical, and other non-technical domains), educational textbooks and other document types as appropriate for this industry. The DocBook Publishers subcommittee maintains the DocBook Publishers schema. Based on DocBook V5.0, the DocBook Publishers schema is normatively available as a Schema (with some additional Schematron assertions). As of 21 April 2010, a DTD version will also be made available, but is not the normative format. The DocBook Technical Committee welcomes bug reports and requests for enhancement (RFEs) from the user community. The current list of outstanding requests is available through the SourceForge tracker interface. This is also the preferred mechanism for submitting new requests. Of the 361 total elements in the full DocBook standard, the Publishers schema has been simplified to exclude 149 elements from full DocBook. Modifications have been made to 11 patterns from the DocBook schema. Additions to the schema include: the Dublin Core metadata elements (54) and 6 new elements.

The key words must, must not, required, shall, shall not, should, should not, recommended, may, and optional are to be interpreted as described in . Note that for reasons of style, these words are not capitalized in this document.

The DocBook Publishers RELAX NG Schema is distributed from the DocBook site at OASIS. DocBook is also available from the mirror on . This subcommittee will submit additional enhancements back to the full DocBook standard as appropriate. The scope of this DocBook Publishers schema is publishing industry content. Broadly, this includes books, journals and other related publications. The DocBook Publishers schema has been written as a native RELAX NG grammar, based on DocBook V5.0. This effort delivers on the following goals: Build official DocBook variant, based against the DocBook v5.0 schemas. Address issues and enhancement requests that have arisen from experience with real-world DocBook implementations. Add support for features specific to the publishing industry.

The DocBook Publishers schema includes the following elements above and beyond those currently provided by the core DocBook standard. These are considered "official customizations".

While DocBook already includes many of the elements that are defined by the Dublin Core, it is not inherently interoperable with DC metadata. The Publisher's SC has decided to formally adopt Dublin Core metadata (issued 2008-01-14) as a formal metadata model for info elements. The Publishers schema will continue to support the base DocBook info metadata, but will allow Dublin Core elements as an alternative for capturing metadata in this widely adopted schema. In info, authors will be allowed to use either the standard DocBook elements or Dublin Core elements, and info may not contain a mix of the two element sets. As the Dublin Core standard does not provide a RelaxNG or RelaxNG Compact version of their schema, the Publishers SC has endeavored to create Dublin Core in RNC format. The Publishers SC plans to contribute the dcterms.rnc, and dcmitypes.rnc back to the Dublin Core standard. The following Dublin Core elements from the http://purl.org/dc/terms/ namespace have been defined and included in the Publishers schema: title A name given to the resource. creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource. Examples of a Creator include a person, an organization, or a service. Typically, the name of a Creator should be used to indicate the entity. subject The topic of the resource. Typically, the subject will be represented using keywords, key phrases, or classification codes. Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary. To describe the spatial or temporal topic of the resource, use the Coverage element. description An account of the resource. Description may include but is not limited to: an abstract, a table of contents, a graphical representation, or a free-text account of the resource. publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available. Examples of a Publisher include a person, an organization, or a service. Typically, the name of a Publisher should be used to indicate the entity. contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource. Examples of a Contributor include a person, an organization, or a service. Typically, the name of a Contributor should be used to indicate the entity. date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource. Date may be used to express temporal information at any level of granularity. Recommended best practice is to use an encoding scheme, such as the W3CDTF profile of ISO 8601 [W3CDTF]. type The nature or genre of the resource. Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary such as the DCMI Type Vocabulary [DCMITYPE]. To describe the file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource, use the Format element. format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource. Examples of dimensions include size and duration. Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary such as the list of Internet Media Types [MIME]. identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context. Recommended best practice is to identify the resource by means of a string conforming to a formal identification system. source A related resource from which the described resource is derived. The described resource may be derived from the related resource in whole or in part. Recommended best practice is to identify the related resource by means of a string conforming to a formal identification system. language A language of the resource. Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary such as RFC 4646 [RFC4646]. relation A related resource. Recommended best practice is to identify the related resource by means of a string conforming to a formal identification system. coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant. Spatial topic and spatial applicability may be a named place or a location specified by its geographic coordinates. Temporal topic may be a named period, date, or date range. A jurisdiction may be a named administrative entity or a geographic place to which the resource applies. Recommended best practice is to use a controlled vocabulary such as the Thesaurus of Geographic Names [TGN]. Where appropriate, named places or time periods can be used in preference to numeric identifiers such as sets of coordinates or date ranges. rights Information about rights held in and over the resource. Typically, rights information includes a statement about various property rights associated with the resource, including intellectual property rights. alternative An alternative name for the resource. The distinction between titles and alternative titles is application-specific. tableOfContents A list of subunits of the resource. abstract A summary of the resource. created Date of creation of the resource. valid Date (often a range) of validity of a resource. available Date (often a range) that the resource became or will become available. issued Date of formal issuance (e.g., publication) of the resource. modified Date on which the resource was changed. dateAccepted Date of acceptance of the resource. Examples of resources to which a Date Accepted may be relevant are a thesis (accepted by a university department) or an article (accepted by a journal). dateCopyrighted Date of copyright. dateSubmitted Date of submission of the resource. Examples of resources to which a Date Submitted may be relevant are a thesis (submitted to a university department) or an article (submitted to a journal). extent The size or duration of the resource. medium The material or physical carrier of the resource. isVersionOf A related resource of which the described resource is a version, edition, or adaptation. Changes in version imply substantive changes in content rather than differences in format. hasVersion A related resource that is a version, edition, or adaptation of the described resource. isReplacedBy A related resource that supplants, displaces, or supersedes the described resource. replaces A related resource that is supplanted, displaced, or superseded by the described resource. isRequiredBy A related resource that requires the described resource to support its function, delivery, or coherence. requires A related resource that is required by the described resource to support its function, delivery, or coherence. isPartOf A related resource in which the described resource is physically or logically included. hasPart A related resource that is included either physically or logically in the described resource. isReferencedBy A related resource that references, cites, or otherwise points to the described resource. references A related resource that is referenced, cited, or otherwise pointed to by the described resource. isFormatOf A related resource that is substantially the same as the described resource, but in another format. hasFormat A related resource that is substantially the same as the pre-existing described resource, but in another format. conformsTo An established standard to which the described resource conforms. spatial Spatial characteristics of the resource. temporal Temporal characteristics of the resource. audience A class of entity for whom the resource is intended or useful. accrualMethod The method by which items are added to a collection. accrualPeriodicity The frequency with which items are added to a collection. accrualPolicy The policy governing the addition of items to a collection. instructionalMethod A process, used to engender knowledge, attitudes and skills, that the described resource is designed to support. Instructional Method will typically include ways of presenting instructional materials or conducting instructional activities, patterns of learner-to-learner and learner-to-instructor interactions, and mechanisms by which group and individual levels of learning are measured. Instructional methods include all aspects of the instruction and learning processes from planning and implementation through evaluation and feedback. provenance A statement of any changes in ownership and custody of the resource since its creation that are significant for its authenticity, integrity, and interpretation. The statement may include a description of any changes successive custodians made to the resource. rightsHolder A person or organization owning or managing rights over the resource. mediator An entity that mediates access to the resource and for whom the resource is intended or useful. In an educational context, a mediator might be a parent, teacher, teaching assistant, or care-giver. educationLevel A class of entity, defined in terms of progression through an educational or training context, for which the described resource is intended. accessRights Information about who can access the resource or an indication of its security status. Access Rights may include information regarding access or restrictions based on privacy, security, or other policies. license A legal document giving official permission to do something with the resource. bibliographicCitation A bibliographic reference for the resource. Recommended practice is to include sufficient bibliographic detail to identify the resource as unambiguously as possible. The following table provides a comparison of the Dublin Core metadata elements and equivalent elements from core DocBook. As the Publishers schema provides for an "either-or" approach to metadata, authors will have to provide metadata in either Dublin Core or in DocBook, but not a mix of the two. In some cases, additional role attributes or other logic may be required to determine the best mapping for core DocBook elements. Dublin Core element Core DocBook element title title creator author,editor,othercreditBest practice would be to only use author for creator.

The following elements have been added to support the needs of publishers: speaker Designates a person who is giving a speech or lecture. line A line of dialogue or other form of communication. linegroup A grouping of lines in dialogue or other form of communication. poetry A container for poetry. dialogue A container for speeches and other forms of communication involving dialogue. drama A container for plays and other forms of dramatic presentation. The following provides an example usage of the newly added elements: <drama > <linegroup> <speaker>HAMLET</speaker> <line>To be, or not to be: that is the question:</line> <line>Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer</line> <line>The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,</line> <line>Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,</line> <line>And by opposing end them? </line> </linegroup> </drama> The following provides an example usage of the newly added elements: <dialogue > <linegroup> <speaker>President John F. Kennedy</speaker> <line>And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.</line> <line>My fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.</line> <line>Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us here the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth God's work must truly be our own.</line> </linegroup> </dialogue> The following provides an example usage of the newly added elements: <poetry> <title>Auld Lang Syne</title> <info> <creator xmlns="http://purl.org/dc/terms/">Robert Burns</creator> </info> <linegroup> <line>Should auld acquaintance be forgot,</line> <line>And never brought to mind?</line> <line>Should auld acquaintance be forgot,</line> <line>And auld lang syne?</line> </linegroup> <linegroup> <line>For auld lang syne, my dear,</line> <line>For auld lang syne,</line> <line>We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet,</line> <line>For auld lang syne.</line> </linegroup> </poetry>

The following content models from core DocBook have been customized to better support the needs of Publishers: sidebar Several publishers demonstrated a need to have nested sections within a sidebar. As a result, the sidebar model was modified to allow recursive section elements. Sidebar was also modified to allow subtitle as well as title. person While not appropriate in technical documentation, several publishers requested that media objects (such as photos) be allowed within a person element. As a result, the person model was modified to include mediaobject. org While not appropriate in technical documentation, several publishers requested that media objects (such as logos) be allowed within an org element. The org element was modified to include mediaobject. info The various patterns defining info have been modified to allow either DocBook metadata OR Dublin Core metadata elements. block-level patterns The block-level patterns in the schema have been modified to allow the newly created elements: dialogue, poetry, drama.

The DocBook Publishers Subcommittee identified 149 elements from core DocBook that, while appropriate for technical documentation, were not necessary for the broader Publishing industry. These elements are listed in .

The DocBook Publishers schema is a valid DocBook v5.0 customization. Publications or documents will be considered conformant to this specification if they validate against the DocBook Publishers schema (publishers.rnc or publishers.rng). Extensions allow implementers to include features that are in demand by their customers. Also, extensions, often times, define new features that may migrate into future versions of this specification. However, the use of extensions can have a severe negative impact on interoperability. Any extensions to this schema SHALL follow the principles and guidelines of the DocBook v5.0 and this Publishers specification; that is, the specifications SHALL be extended in a standard manner as described in http://docbook.org/tdg5/en/html/ch05.html. For implementations and/or applications that contain extensions, extensions SHALL be clearly described in supporting documentation, and the extensions SHALL be marked as such within the implementation/application. This document's normative language is English. Translation into other languages is permitted.

In the interest of providing a schema that meets the needs of the Publishing industry, the following considerations were made with regard to the modular approach to the schema and the exclusion of certain core DocBook elements: Simplified markup The focus should be on the structural, presentational and semantic markup that meets the needs of Publishers. No technical elements The vast majority of Publishers will not need the technical elements from core DocBook. For those titles that require technical markup, the inlines can easily be added as a module to the Publishers schema. Generated text With the robust DocBook toolchain, most Publishers will want to automate the creation of a Table of Contents and Index. The following 149 elements from full DocBook have been excluded from the Publishers schema: Because the Publishers schema is written in RelaxNG Compact syntax, it is very easy to add elements back into a customization of the Publishers schema. For example, if the elements in the programming module were needed, it is very simple to use an include statement for the programming.rnc file from the source DocBook distribution. Norm Walsh has also developed an XProc pipeline to convert the RelaxNG format to DTD. For more information on this process, see http://docbook.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/docbook/trunk/docbook/relaxng/tools/rng2dtd/.
