Who I am?
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - IIIF Annual Meeting 2017
Many projects struggle creating IIIF Manifest with
manual or semi-automatic process…difficult to update,
improve, maintain; lack of additional features: LTP,
authNZ
Some specialized software can help but they work only
on digitalized content or images making them another
data silos…
IRs are already in place, no additional costs to adopt
them also for images collections
Why use the Institutional Repository
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - IIIF Annual Meeting 2017
DSpace
Open source solution (BSD 3-Clause license)
Community driven
- Committers group (Technology)
- Steering committee (Strategy)
Under the umbrella of the Duraspace Foundation
The most used repository platform in the World (more
2200 known installations)
DSpace-CRIS is an extension of DSpace available with
the same license featured for Research Management
Andrea Bollini, 4Science - IIIF Annual Meeting 2017
Easy to use and maintain (cost effective)
Accurate description (metadata)
High web visibility (SEO)
Suitable for self-archiving or proxy archiving
Validation and approval workflow
Digital preservation (OAIS compliant & integrations)
Persistent Identifiers, Versioning
Interoperability (OAI-PMH, SWORD, REST, etc.)
DSpace: key characteristics

Can use any IIIF compliant image server (tested with Digilib,
Cantaloupe, IIPImage) – security enforced by DSpace
Preprocessing of NEF, CR2 raw formats or PDF file to use with
the image server – using DSpace curation tasks

An innovative Open Business Model
#makeITopen http://www.4science.it/en/dspace-add-ons/
Our Addons is proposed to partner Institutions for a small contribution
to cover our investment in R&D.
Once the target is reached the addons will be released as open source
for the whole community
All in a transparent way (example for the IIIF Image Viewer):
- Single contribution to access and use the code €5,000
- Adopters listed on the website
- €150K to release (BSD-3) the current code and the planned roadmap
We have joined the Universal Viewer conversation on GitHub
proposing a new panel to visualize text side-by-side with the
image (OCR Panel: PR#424)
We are using the DBMDZ IIIF Presentation JAVA API library
contributing back our findings (better support for 2.1)
We are advocating pro-IIIF
- in the Repository communities proposing it as a suitable technology for
knowledge sharing and reuse. It is our recommendation for the NGR COAR
TG
- in the CRIS / VRE community proposing it as the standard to deal with
research images
How we collaborate with the IIIF community
