Read a source description. The Source Description resource gets a user's source description.

| Property | Description |

| id | A local identifier for the source description. |
| about | URI to the resource being described, if any. |
| title | Label, title, or other name to display to the user for the source. |
| citation | The citation for the source. FamilySearch only supports the value of the citation and not any template or associated citation fields. |
| notes | Notes about the source provided by a user. |
