Hello everyone,

We are trying to integrate Mirador as a IIIF viewer in DSpace.

Our understanding is:

  • IIIF is the framework

  • Mirador is the viewer

  • DSpace should provide the IIIF manifest

However, we are facing issues with the Mirador integration not working properly.

Current setup:

  • Repository: DSpace 8

  • Goal: Integrate Mirador viewer to display images using IIIF

  • IIIF Image Server: (Cantaloupe / not sure – please advise)

Issues we are facing:

  • Mirador is not integrate with DSpace

  • IIIF manifest URL is either not generated or not rendering in Mirador

  • Unclear configuration steps between DSpace, IIIF, and Mirador

Questions:

  1. What is the recommended way to integrate Mirador with DSpace?

  2. Does DSpace natively support IIIF manifests, or is a custom setup required?

  3. Which IIIF Image Server works best with DSpace (Cantaloupe/IIPImage)?

  4. Are there any sample configurations or documentation available for this integration?

Any guidance, documentation, or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
