Is there any way that Scripto can be used to integrate collections maintained by CONTENTdm? I was reading that it can integrate collections maintained by other content management systems, but I haven't found any info on a CONTENTdm implementation.

Thanks in advance for any help!

I'm unaware of a CONTENTdm implementation of Scripto. I'm not very familiar with CONTENTdm but if it has an API that provides access to documents and their images, you could build a transcription interface using the Scripto library. The best way to learn how to connect CONTENTdm and Scripto is by looking at Omeka's Scripto plugin: https://github.com/omeka/plugin-Scripto It has an established codebase and reflects many of the possible features.
