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=erdoes&type=AllFields&submit=Find<http://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!
