The Scholix metadata schema was created by journal publishers, data centres, and global service providers to collect and exchange links between research data and literature. The core of Scholix data is the Link Information Package, which contains information about two objects and about the link between them. The schema contains of all the properties in a Scholix link information package with their definitions, structure and occurrence rules. Many of the properties are optional; the schema is designed to allow bulk exchange of link information with a minimum of information relevant to the link being mandatory.
