Key points Standards‐based annotation can be used anywhere on the web across HTML, PDF, EPUB, and data to make public, private, and group notes on top of the version of record. Publishers can host a branded and moderated annotation layer and determine whether they want it open to anyone or restricted to specific users. Annotations have unique persistent web addresses that make it possible to link to a paragraph, sentence, or word rather than a page‐level URL. Interoperable annotation will allow annotators using different annotation clients to interact with annotations made by others. Open annotation is already being used in peer review, in workflows, to indicate changes and updates, and to add context to content.
