About Resource Annotations

Resource Annotations are meant to serve as method to provide additional metadata identifiers for a resource, beyond the standard set of fields associated with a resource. For example, a user may want to add the Library of Congress Control Number to a particular document,  or perhaps a URL that points to the most recent copy of an original document -- tDAR does not provide these fields.  In this example, a user could add resource annotations to include this metadata.
