Description: Consumers as Creators seeks to analyze botanical researchers’ annotation needs and develop a prototype of how those needs may be met within a digital library platform. The intended outcome of the proposed project is to illuminate literature annotation needs of scientific and other research communities by honing in on the annotation needs of a well-defined user group in systematic botany. Assessment of the practicality of an existing tool to satisfy the annotation needs of botanical users, including technical, economic, and operational considerations, will inform developers on best practices to integrate an annotation tool within a virtual library. Results will help to illuminate and inform about the annotation needs of botanists as well as those within the broader scientific research community.
