Definition

The ANNOTATION element is a stand-alone element housing supplementary information about the metadata used to describe a media resource. It clarifies element values and controlled vocabularies that may not be sufficient.

Refinements and
Encoding Schemes
 

Use free-form text entry.

Guidelines for Usage

The ANNOTATION element is envisioned as a Post-it® Note containing comments that further explain or document the descriptions of a media resource through its metadata elements. If the pre-defined elements and qualified elements require further explanation, ANNOTATION should contain this information.

Additionally, ANNOTATION is useful in cases where an established controlled vocabulary does not adequately represent certain qualities of an asset.


Obligation to Use

Optional

Repeatable Element

Apply multiple times, as needed
