Look at the spec here:
https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-vocab/ & https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-model/

At the moment links and comments are stored as our own custom rdf structure. It would make sense to align these with this standard. This way we could construct multiple links - and import canonical data for sources such as http://opencitations.net/, https://www.crossref.org/blog/content-negotiation-for-crossref-dois/, https://www.oclc.org/developer/develop/linked-data/linked-data-exploration.en.html.

Although equally this would enable us to build our own annotation types - pointers to dat-library for example.

By keeping metadata as annotations we can also detach these from the 'Document' and allow users to view citation data independently.

see #44
There is a bigger question here about which vocabulary to adopt to represent bibliographic data.
