IIIF Museums Community call - Oct 5 - Yale presentation
emmanuelle....@yale.edu
Hi all,
Yale colleagues will be talking about generating, maintaining and serving IIIF Content at Yale University.
The talk will give an overview of the collaboration between libraries, museums and Central ITS to adopt IIIF as the shared image delivery standard at Yale. The speakers will describe how the current IIIF implementation is supported by a shared architecture (Digital Asset Management System, Content Delivery Service, Activity Streams) with the goal to deliver visual content to the upcoming Yale-wide cross-collections discovery platform (LUX: Yale Collections), highlighting the difference with the YCBA’s early adoption (2015). They will talk about the rights standardization work done to provide the IIIF manifests with machine actionable copyright information. They will point to examples of current uses of IIIF by the LUX collections, and finally they will speak to road map for broader adoption by collecting units as well as teaching and learning at Yale.

Jeff Campbell, Associate Director of Digital Asset Technologies, Yale University ITS
Eric James, Software Engineer, Yale Center for British Art
