This is achieved by selecting [modules](http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/ST.html#STMA) from the P5 standard using TEI's own [ODD](http://www.tei-c.org/guidelines/customization/getting-started-with-p5-odds/) schema language. The master copy of the schema is [msdesc.odd](/msdesc.odd) and this is then converted into schema formats which XML editors and validating parsers can understand (currently [msdesc.rng](/msdesc.rng) which is [RelaxNG](http://relaxng.org/) but more will be added soon.) +The schema is a customized version of the TEI (Text Encoding Initiative) P5 standard.

[HTML](https://bodleian.github.io/consolidated-tei-schema/msdesc.html) and [PDF](https://bodleian.github.io/consolidated-tei-schema/msdesc.pdf) versions are available (generated from the ODD file.) Also in this repository are library files used by XSL and XQuery scripts in the catalogue repositories to process the TEI (e.g. converting into HTML, generating indexes for [Blacklight](http://projectblacklight.org/)-based web sites.
