NISO RP-15-2013 is intended to help the scholarly publishing community develop a more
standardized approach to publishing what has become known as Supplemental Materials for Journal
Articles in a rapidly changing technology environment. The intent is to lessen the burden on all of the
parties engaged in the publishing process, to ensure that Supplemental Materials delivered in connection
with journal articles add substance to the scholarship, to make Supplemental Materials more discoverable,
and to aid in preserving them.
Existing Supplemental Material may predate electronic publishing. For example, older journals, which
have been digitized post-publication, may have had microfiche supplements. In an ideal world, all would
be digitized; however, available resources may preclude applying these recommendations to older
materials. Consequently, publishers may wish to concentrate their efforts only on future articles.
