	abstract = {Peter Boot explores the scholarly primitive of annotation. Boot{\textquoteright}s central argument is that the "ultimate justification for digitisation efforts is not [...] mere electronic availability of the texts [but that the] wider issue is to make the content of the works available as potential nodes in a larger digital network that will include not just the sources but also the tools, the output and the intermediate products of scholarship." His purpose is to dig into the concept of annotation in order to explore what it can accomplish. Boot coins the term mesotext to refer to a body of annotations, and uses case studies from EDITOR and RolandHT to direct his discussion. Boot concludes with a list of seven conditions of a successful mesotext and encourages that future work be undertaken in researching annotation exchange. },
