Abstract
The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is emerging as a standard format for structured data. Various scientific disciplines are in the process of defining XML document type definitions (DTDs) for communication among specialists. XML applications in the fields of chemistry, molecular biology, and mathematics are described and the relevance of such applications to science librarianship is discussed.
