[MCN-L] DAMs

2011-04-28 Thread Beth Heller
I just wanted to thank everyone who posted which DAMs they were using and
why.  I think we are going to explore a bit further with
Fedora/Islandora/Solr, but David Dwiggins spent a great deal of time on the
phone with me showing me ResourceSpace and it was really impressive.  The
main thing I've learned is that there is no out-of-the-box
one-thing-does-it-all solution, so we will have to sort through which layers
will work best together.  Anyone who has advice navigating this part of the
project will be welcome!  Specific costs and vendors/developers and pros and
cons of various APIs please! And much gratitude goes to Leala for her time
and suggested resources as well!
Beth

For those who will be interested to participate in the group or discussions
about the issues of digital asset management, you can send me your names. I
can work with Diana/the MCN Board to see if a separate group should be
formed, or we can work with the current Digital Media SIG to further our
discussions. If you are interested to share your experiences, maybe we can
form a panel discussion at the coming MCN conference.

Best,
Billy

[MCN-L] digital asset management tools/software

2011-04-07 Thread Beth Heller
I would like to hear what people are using to organize, identify, search,
serve and push digital files of all formats, in-house and to the web.  We
are looking to implement a digital asset management system for our
organization's working and historic documents, as well as more efficient
work flows.


We currently have nothing but a disorganized file and folder system.  We are
a small non-profit institution with limited financial and human resources.

Thank you!
Beth
