Abstract

Architectures and techniques are described to tag annotations of electronic books and to manage the tags. In particular implementations, a client device may tag one or more annotations of an electronic book, where each of the annotations may be associated with a portion of the electronic book. The client device may request and obtain annotations associated with one or more tags and export the annotations to at least one destination, such as an additional client device, a file, an application, or a combination thereof. Additionally, annotation tags may be shared by members of a particular group. Thus, one member of the group can obtain and utilize tags used by other members of the group.
