Image annotation is a powerful method for cultural institutions to document, interpret, and activate their collections. However, contemporary curatorial and research use cases require a sophisticated and flexible framework for implementing layers of annotations configured for diverse objectives and audiences, not just pop-up notes. Annotation Sets in Glycerine already provide the capability to manage layers of annotations for different audiences. Our newest feature — Annotation Templates — provides the capability to define configurable sets of fields (text, dates, controlled vocabularies, rich text and media) and apply them to particular Annotation Sets or indeed to individual annotations.
