Funding Information

Funding information should be captured as text and metadata in <funding-group> within <article-meta>.

For deliveries to CATS suppliers must:

Verify Funding details against the FundRef Registry if extracting funding details from any source other than CATS XML (such as manuscript text, proof corrections, or instructions from production editors).
Ensure absolute consistency in funding details between TF JATS article XML, PDF, and CATS XML files at all stages when making deliveries to CATS.
Ensure absolute consistency in funding details between the narrative text in <funding-statement> and metadata in <award-group> elements.

Funding details should be captured within a <funding-group>, with an <award-group> containing a <funding-source> for each funding agency or funding award. The funding agency name should be captured within <named-content content-type="funder-name">, and where a funding agency is matched against the FundRef registry, or a FundRef identifier has been provided in CATS XML, the FundRef identifier should be captured as <named-content content-type="funder-identifier">. Where award or grant IDs are provided, they should be individually captured within an <award-id>, with multiple IDs for the same funding agency captured in separate <award-id> elements. The <funding-statement> should be used to capture the text included in the Funding details section of the published article. <funding-statement> should not include the title or heading of the funding section, for example <bold>Funding</bold> should not be included.

The <funding-statement> element should be rendered as required for the journal style. For example: <funding-statement> may be rendered in the PDF as a section titled "Funding" at the back of the article before the references section. Note that the "Funding" heading should not be tagged in <funding-statement>. In some journal styles the funding statement may be rendered as a footnote on the article opening page.
