[Discussion] url for every item
dear all,
we are looking for an opportunity to saving an url for every item, especially when I use the magic wand. It would be great to know the origin of the data, e.g. for ISBN numbers.
The perfect example is metadata of a doi. Of course, a DOI has always a URL.
A default url is especially useful in all digital publishing contexts, where every citation can be linked to a standard resource - like an authority file.
For other items and identifers we are looking for a standard catalogue. Maybe openlibrary.org might be a good candidate.
Could this concept be a proposal for a feature? Or should it be an good manner of the community .
Regards

If you want to keep track of a URL without including it in citations, you can add a link attachment via Add Attachment -> Attach Web Link.... A few translators (scripts that ingest identifiers/webpages) do that automatically for catalog page URLs.
