Many research projects make use of language resources and in the process of the research, generate derived resources such as annotations or derived features. These resources are not often shared and there is no mechanism for associating them with the original resource in a way that would help future users discover them. This paper describes a new feature of the Alveo Virtual Laboratory that allows researchers to upload these derived resources and have them associated with and integrated with the original resource. This facility is designed to encourage the sharing of these derived resources by making the process of sharing easy and providing an incentive in the form of a citeable URL that can be properly attributed to the authors in subsequent publications.
