Using Open Annotation
Timothy W. Cole ([email protected])
Introduction and Overview
• Premise: Annotation is a pervasive element of scholarship – How does past practice (on paper) translate to digital realm?– What kinds of new annotation practice is enabled?
• Goal:A Web and resource-centric interoperable annotation environment
that allows leveraging of annotations across the boundaries of annotation clients, annotation servers, and content collections
• Timeline:– OAC Phase I funded by Andrew Mellon Foundation March 2009– 1st OAC experiments begin Jan. 2011; 2nd group begin Fall 2011– W3C Open Annotation Community Group Formed Dec. 2011– Draft core & extension specs posted May 2012; 1.0 release by Jan.– Public rollouts spring 2013: East Coast, West Coast, Europe

9 May 2012 Draft (Beta)

Basic Annotation Model:
<Anno1> a oa:Annotation ; oa:hasBody <Body1> ; oa:hasTarget <Target1> .
• Support for expressing provenance (under review)– Both human and machine agents
• Support for expressing motivation for annotating (new)– Commenting, questioning, agreeing / disagreeing, ....
• Support for annotating segment or region of target– Also State (e.g., representation, version, ...)
• Support for multiple targets (revised)– Multiple individual, choice/alternatives, set / cohesive whole, list
• Support for annotation of targets in context (new)
• Semantic & data annotations (revised)
• Basic vocabularies for selectors, motivations, ...
Key Features
Provenance and classing
Current Consensus1. rdf:type•Every annotation MUST have an explicit class of oa:Annotation
•Sub-classes of oa:Annotation may be used to restrict data model
2. oa:motivatedBy•To express reasons why the annotation was created
•Proposed oa:Motivations: oax:Commenting, oax:Tagging, oax:Highlighting, oax:Asking, oax:Editing, ....
Motivation (for annotating)
Specific targets & bodiesCan express / constrain:
•Source•State •Selector•Scope
Current Consensus
•Multiple occurrences of the same predicate will be treated as "Individuals".
Each body annotates each target completely and independently
•Other constructions require explicit, typed nodes within the graph.–oa:Choice: Exactly one of the items in the Choice should be used.–oa:Set: All of the items in the Set should be used, and order is unimportant–oa:List: All of the items in the List should be used, and order is important.
•These same classes will be used for Bodies, Targets and Specifiers.
•Specifiers must use one of oa:Choice, oa:Set, oa:List
