[MCN-L] Javascript thumbnail/gallery viewer recommendation?
Chris, You may have already done this, but have you kicked the tires on Omeka http://omeka.org/ by chance? It's more of a php thing, though, than perhaps what you're ideally looking for. I actually like your current Vuefind - IIPMooViewer integration. It looks like you're serving up the slides as scalable JPEG 2000 masters? I'm not sure if Omeka would play as nicely with IIP. But I haven't tested either in some time now, so I'm a bit rusty on the latest and greatest. Michael = Michael J.

We are looking for a piece of software for our thumbnail/gallery view that would ideally be written in Javascript or Jquery. We have a collection of 35000 35mm slides that are described at the box level (eg Uxmal [10 of 28 slides]) and want to include this as part of our Digital Library to allow a user to view an entire box at a time. Almost like a digital contact sheet. The collection in question can be seen at: http://brbl-dl.library.yale.edu/vufind/Search/Results?lookfor=erdoestype=AllFieldssubmit=Findhttp://brbl-dl.library.yale.edu/vufind/Record/3739167 There are a million such packages that turn up with a google search, most or at least a lot of them are suited to the blog world, so I thought Id turn here to see what people are using in their own digital collections to achieve such a function. Any anecdotes, recommendations, reviews or suggestions would be most welcome. Thanks!

[MCN-L] Results: Digital Asset Management (DAM) Planning/Implementation Survey
Colleagues, Apologizes for any cross-postings. The results from our August 2010 survey on DAM systems and planning are now up at http://digitalcommons.uconn.edu/libr_pubs/24/. We received some really thoughtful and helpful material that we had promised to share. Thanks so much to all who took the time to respond to the survey. Michael = Michael J. Bennett Digital Projects Librarian Institutional Repository Coordinator University of Connecticut Homer Babbidge Library 369 Fairfield Way, U2005-P Storrs, CT 06269 860-486-5276 860-486-6017 fax http://digitalcollections.uconn.edu/ = From: Michael J. Bennett Sent: Monday, August 02, 2010 2:50 PM To: diglib at infoserv.inist.fr; digipres at ala.org; IMAGELIB at LISTSERV.ARIZONA.EDU Subject: Digital Asset Management (DAM) Planning/Implementation Survey Colleagues, Apologies for any cross-postings. Here at UConn we are currently in the process of reviewing the current landscape with regard to overall DAM system offerings, the services that they provide vs. perceived local needs, expectations with regard to their implementation, etc . As part of this local review, we are also interested in getting feedback from people in the larger cultural heritage community who have perhaps either travelled this road before us and already have a system in place or who are similarly in our shoes and have just begun to strategize. With our own ongoing digital asset creation at UConn, we feel that it is time to more clearly consider the better overall administrative management of such broadening content in a more automated and consolidated manner. Hence we've initiated an initial investigation and online survey that we invite you to participate in: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/HDG9M2Z (Estimated time to complete: approx. 15-20 minutes) The survey will remain open until August 31, 2010. We will post results via a report uploaded to our institutional repository, http://digitalcommons.uconn.edu/. Please note that in our report, personal information from the survey will not be revealed, and any comments used will remain unattributed. Feel free to forward the survey link to other relevant constituencies. Thank you, Michael = Michael J.
