set_additional_info() will add information to the additionalInfo element in EML.
set_additional_info(eml_object, additional_info, force = FALSE, NPS = TRUE)is an EML-formatted R object, either generated in R or imported (typically from an EML-formatted .xml file) using EML::read_eml(

logical. Defaults to false. If set to FALSE, a more interactive version of the function requesting user input and feedback. Setting force = TRUE facilitates scripting.
Logical. Defaults to TRUE. Most NPS users should leave this as the default. Only under specific circumstances should it be set to FALSE: if you are not publishing with NPS, if you need to set the publisher location to some place other than the Fort Collins Office (e.g. you are NOT working on a data package) or your product is "for" the NPS but not "by" the NPS and you need to specify a different agency, set NPS = FALSE. When NPS=TRUE, the function will over-write existing publisher info and inject NPS as the publisher along the the Central Office in Fort Collins as the location. Additionally, it sets the "for or by NPS" field to TRUE and specifies the originating agency as NPS.

The contents of the additionalInformation element are used to populate the 'notes' field on the DataStore landing page. Users may want to edit the notes if errors or non-ASCII text characters are discovered because the notes are prominently displayed on DataStore. To avoid non-standard characters, users are highly encouraged to generate Notes using a text editor such as Notepad rather than a word processor such as MS Word.
At this time, set_additional_info() does not support complex formatting such as, bullets, tabs, or multiple spaces. You can add line breaks with "\n" and a new paragraph (a blank line between text) with "\n\n".
