Stackable Citation Knowledge — Live Demo: Annotate While Reading (CiTeX 2026)

This screencast is the pre-recorded demo segment from the talk

  "Stackable Citation Knowledge: Building on Nanopublications for

  Climate and Biodiversity Research", delivered remotely at the

  CiTeX 2026 Workshop on Citation Extraction and Parsing (DIPF

  Leibniz Institute, Frankfurt, 28-29 May 2026) by Anne Fouilloux

  (LifeWatch ERIC) and Jean Iaquinta (Vitenhub AS).

  The demo walks through the third production path for citation-

  typed nanopublications: an expert reader annotates a citation

  found in someone else's paper, rather than the citing author

  declaring intent (Author path) or an LLM-extraction pipeline

  inferring it retroactively (Extract path). The annotation is

  published as a signed CiTO Citation nanopub on the open Science

  Live network — ORCID-attributed, immutable via Trusty URI, and

  contestable by counter-nanopubs.

  Worked example: while reading Wernberg et al. 2016 (Science,

  353:169-172, "Climate-driven regime shift of a temperate marine

  ecosystem"), the reader infers that Wernberg cites reference 11 -

  Poloczanska et al. 2013 (Nature Climate Change, 3:919-925, "Global

  imprint of climate change on marine life") - as the global

  authority for climate-driven marine species redistribution. The

  annotation is published to Science Live with relation

  cito:citesAsAuthority and a one-sentence rationale tying it to the

  authors' planned Mediterranean Iberian extension.

  This is the alternative to LLM-based citation intent extraction:

  same downstream signed nanopub, human expert reader instead of a

  language model in the loop. Complements OpenCitations, WikiCite,

  and CiTO-extraction tools (GROBID, CEC, GRAPHIA, OFFZIB) by

  providing a citable target for any typed-citation output.

  Tools used:

  - Science Live Zotero plugin (Zotero 7+, plugin v1.0.6)

  - Science Live platform (platform.sciencelive4all.org)

  - Citation with CiTO template (built on CiTO and FaBiO ontologies)
