+
+    A :class:`typing.NewType` of :class:`str`, representing a normalized
+    License-Expression.
+
+
+.. exception:: InvalidLicenseExpression
+
+    Raised when a License-Expression is invalid.
+
+
+.. function:: canonicalize_license_expression(raw_license_expression)
+
+    This function takes a valid License-Expression, and returns the normalized form of it.
+
+    The return type is typed as :class:`NormalizedLicenseExpression`. This allows type
+    checkers to help require that a string has passed through this function
+    before use.
+
+    :param str raw_license_expression: The License-Expression to canonicalize.
+    :raises InvalidLicenseExpression: If the License-Expression is invalid due to an
+        invalid/unknown license identifier or invalid syntax.
