Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

We're in the middle of migrating from CONTENTdm to our own homegrown system. Happy to answer any questions. The new system is now beta with a couple of our CDM collections, with more to come later in the month. Check it out: rdc.reed.edu On Wed, Oct 5, 2016 at 1:26 PM, Zhang, Bin wrote: > Calif

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

California State University system is moving from Dspace to Hydra (Fedora-based) early next year. At least a few of us in the consortium are thinking of moving our local CONTENTdm to the hydra as well. --- Bin Zhang Digital Information Services Librarian Library Systems & IT Services, Universit

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

At FSU we are using Islandora for both our Digital Collections and the Research Repository (http://diginole.fsu.edu). We rely on the consortial office, FLVC, to host. We work closely with their tech team and can develop features ourselves. I've copied Bryan Brown and Favenzio Calvo, our two d

[CODE4LIB] Self-Service Book Scanners For Patron Use

Forgive a second "question/survey" post in a single day, but I'm also looking for feedback on any self-service book scanners you may have in your library. We currently use a 5-yr-old KIC BookEye Scanner as a public book scanner for our patrons. Popular features include: touch-screen editing of im

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

Hi all, The system at the UIUC Library that you would want to look at is this: https://digital.library.illinois.edu/ Think of it as a public-facing front-end to the Medusa preservation archive. The data from our local CONTENTdm collections are already in the Medusa preservation archive, an

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

Another alternative: stick with CONTENTdm for metadata ingest and admin but take charge of the front end by migrating it to Blacklight. That is what we are doing here: http://lib-mdl-dev.oit.umn.edu (demo / prototype site). We plan on launching our MDL Blacklight instance sometime this spring. E

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

This is pretty interesting — is Medusa a home-grown solution? I can’t find information about who made it on the FAQ. On October 5, 2016 at 11:40:29 AM, Dubnicek, Ryan C (rdubn...@illinois.edu) wrote: This isn¹t quite my area, but thought I¹d chime in to say that

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

I'd also be interested in the results. We are planning to migrate to CONTENTdm hosted but are looking at other longer term alternatives. We've got our eye on the Hydra-in-a-Box project as a potential leading candidate. We're a small institution, though, and actually ARE interested in hosted solutio

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

This isn¹t quite my area, but thought I¹d chime in to say that the U. Illinois Library is piloting a few collections in Medusa (more details on this here: https://medusa.library.illinois.edu/) as a potential replacement for CONTENTdm. Best, ‹Ryan Ryan Dubnicek Project Coordinator HathiTrust Res

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

My current employer doesn't do much with digital collections, rather with institutional repositories. Though I have talked to a number of folks who have been moving to some kind of fedora solution. On Wed, Oct 5, 2016 at 2:30 PM, Diaz, Noel A wrote: > We at Purdue Libraries are on the same boat

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

Chris et al, The University of Florida (UF) has been using SobekCM which began as a standards-based home-grown solution for the past thirteen years as both a digital collection and IR platform. Since then it has been released open source and has over thirty different instances running support

Re: [CODE4LIB] CONTENTdm And Alternatives

We at Purdue Libraries are on the same boat. Already talked with OCLC about hosted solution, but we are really now thinking of and looking into a better local alternative. We don't plan to make any moves any time soon so would be very interested in hearing what others are doing/planning. -- N
