is a maturing technology with many manifestations. Often a standalone function,
others have taken a more ambitious approach by baking annotations into more
comprehensive engagement platforms and experiences. This presentation will
provide an overview of annotation use-cases in popular media, the ways
annotation can be knitted into specific commenting, highlighting, note-taking,
and collaboration environments, the roles and use-cases thought to generate
engagement, and specific scholarly use-cases and how annotation fits into
these. The presentation will also review the results of initial pilots of one
of these broader engagement platforms across 60 journals, showing how an
integrated approach improves many of the key variables editors, authors, and
publishers care about. <span></span></span></p>

the act of creating associations between distinct pieces of information, is a
pervasive activity online in many guises. Web citizens make comments about
online resources using either tools built in to the hosting website, external
web services, or the functionality of an annotation client. Comments about
shared photos or videos, reviews of products, or even social network mentions
of web resources could all be considered as annotations. In addition, there are
a plethora of "sticky note" systems and stand-alone multimedia
annotation systems. The Web Annotation Data Model provides an extensible,
interoperable framework for expressing annotations such that they can easily be
shared between platforms, with sufficient richness of expression to satisfy
complex requirements while remaining simple enough to also allow for the most
common use cases, such as attaching a piece of text to a single web
resource. This presentation will cover an overview of the standard,
including its history and adoption, plus a high level walk through of the model
itself.<span></span></span></p>
