Foss4lib.org, operated by Lyrasis, has an inventory of open source digital asset management systems. OCLC's ContentDM is a bit long in the tooth, but is still very widely used. Islandora and Hydra, both using Fedora Commons as their repository, are very popular among academic libraries. Islandora

I echo Jason and Eric, and as specifically a front-end developer maybe I can offer a little extra insight: Six to eight hours of instruction and code-review from a developer could be enough if there is a fairly involved asynchronous program associated with it. E.g., perhaps your staff takes on

My first thought was the same as Jason's—what if you opened up the opportunity to remote experts? A lot of web developers are used to working remotely and it would greatly widen your potential talent pool. On the other hand, it sounds like you'd need to restructure your program too much, as having

Marshall Breeding's Library Technology web site has a nice search tool that lets you explore what software different libraries are using. Not sure if it includes a lot of museums and it may be heavily ILS focused versus other content tools. http://librarytechnology.org/ -Original Message

An interesting question. I am not sure if there is one great source for that. You can get some idea of open source platforms from FOSS4Lib. I think Wikipedia actually has a listing of software, but not 100% sure on that. It is slightly more institutional repository focused, but the Directory of Ope

Definitely poke local colleges/universities. Although rare, there are often some computing grad students (and maybe a few undergrads) with a passion for teaching that could greatly enjoy such an opportunity. I'd contact student advisors in the relevant departments as they'd probably know which

Have you though about opening this up to people outside your area? There's no reason someone couldn't meet with people via hangouts or skype and review their code asynchronously. That would significantly increase your potential applicant pool. Best regards, *Jason Bengtson, MLIS, MA* Innovation Ar
