Hi all, I hope that this announcement will be of some interest those on the list; the Open Annotation Community Group (http://www.w3.org/community/openannotation/) will be hosting a half-day tutorial describing their new Annotation Data Model (http://www.openannotation.org/spec/core/) at JCDL 2013 (http://jcdl2013.org). Abstract: Using Open Annotation The practice of annotating documents and resources is a time-honored tradition across all scholarly domains and in the day-to-day lives of academicians and non-academicians alike. The W3C Open Annotation (OA) Community Group was formed in late 2011, joining the efforts of the Open Annotation Collaboration and the Annotation Ontology initiative. The Community Group has recently released a developer-ready, RDF-based annotation data model specification to foster the development of interoperable annotation tools and service and to facilitate the sharing of annotations across repository and Web application boundaries. This tutorial introduces digital library, humanities and science computing, and semantic web developers, project managers, and experimenters to: The essential components of the OA data model and specification, Working exemplars of how the OA data model has been applied to various annotation use cases Helpful links, resources, guides and libraries for implementing the OA data model. The tutorial will be led by Open Annotation Collaboration project members: Tim Cole, Tom Habing, Rob Sanderson & Jacob Jett If of interest, please take a moment to register for the tutorial on the JCDL 2013 website.
