I'm not sure we need to handle this object at all. AFAIK, this is always auto-generated by ScienceBase. We can output the onlineResource in the writer using the resource's ScienceBase identifier, if one is available.

Good point. I was reading this as the next and previous were generated depending on user navigation, but the actual link may be generated as well.

The entire link{} object is auto generated. We will not need to read or write this section.
