Here you will link to the resources that you wish to share. This can be done through a link in the text if you are linking to a URL or through the Edit Links/Upload Files feature found at the bottom of the box. You can annote the links either way.

Remember:

To make a link in the text, highlight the words that will be clicked on, click on the globe icon in the menu above and type the url for the link into the box provided.
