Digital Manuscripts Toolkit

Toolkit using IIIF standard (http://iiif.io) for images, a server solution (to store images of manuscripts and metadata), and a client solution using JavaScript to build an authoring tool that allows editing the manuscript manifest and its metadata.

1. DIGITAL MANUSCRIPTS TOOLKIT DIGITAL MANUSCRIPTS TOOLKIT The journey so far... Monica Messaggi Kaya @monicams
2. ABOUT ME ABOUT ME Javascript / Front-end developer at Bodleian Libraries University of Oxford
3. WHAT IS DMT? WHAT IS DMT? Easy to use toolkit focus on the study and presentation of medieval manuscripts, working with digital materials in innovative and exciting ways Project blog at http://dmt.bodleian.ox.ac.uk
4. WHY? WHY? Content is available through a great many different viewers, websites, and approaches. Varied levels of quality, functionality and ease of access, and to lots of duplicated effort
5. AIMS AIMS Use, develop, and repurpose digital manuscripts and other cultural heritage materials
6. International Image Interoperability Framework Two Linked Data-based APIs - an and a - to allow reuse of content, creating a global network whereby institutions can share materials and allow innovative development. Image API Presentation API
7. Deploy an image server that supports the IIIF Image API STEPS TO WORK WITH IIIF STEPS TO WORK WITH IIIF Publish metadata about your image-based objects that complies to IIIF Presentation API Deploy and integrate software that allows you to discover and display IIIF-compliant image resources
8. The IIIF Image API URI for requesting an image must conform to the following URI Template: {scheme}://{server}{/prefix}/{identifier}/{region}/{size}/{rotation}/{quality}.{format} IIIF IMAGE API IIIF IMAGE API For example: http://www.example.org/image-service/abcd1234/full/full/0/default.jpg Demo: http://iiif.io/#try-it
9. Digital images are a container for much of the information content in the Web-based delivery of “stuff” *. IIIF PRESENTATION API IIIF PRESENTATION API * museum objects, books, newspapers, letters, manuscripts, maps, scrolls, single sheet collections, and digital surrogates of textiles, realia and ephemera.
10. Each manifest must, and is very likely to, have one sequence, but may have more than one. PRIMARY RESOURCES PRIMARY RESOURCES Each sequence must have at least one canvas and is likely to have more than one. Each canvas should have one or more content resources associated with it. Zero is possible but unlikely; it represents the case where the page exists (or existed) but has not been digitized.
11. DESCRIPTIVE PROPERTIES DESCRIPTIVE PROPERTIES label A human readable label, name or title for the resource. metadata A list of short descriptive entries, given as pairs of human readable label and value to be displayed to the user. thumbnail A small image that depicts or pictorially represents the resource that the property is attached to. PRESENTATION RESOURCE PROPERTIES PRESENTATION RESOURCE PROPERTIES
12. RIGHTS AND LICENSING PROPERTIES RIGHTS AND LICENSING PROPERTIES attribution A human readable label that must be displayed when the resource it is associated with is displayed or used. logo A small image that represents an individual or organization associated with the resource it is attached to. license A link to an external resource that describes the license or rights statement under which the resource is being used.

14. Using JSON for linking data ( ) to organise and connect Json - ease of developement Linked data - play nice with others JSON-LD HOW? HOW?

18. Discovery: This reunites an early Qur’anic manuscript which had been split and dispersed and is now held by four institutions: Bodleian (UK), Wolfenbuttel (Germany), Chester Beatty Library (Dublin), and the BnF (Paris) Digital Mushaf project DMT PROGRESS DMT PROGRESS
19. Display IIIF-compliant image resources Using on the Another example: - demo Mirador Mushaf pilot project UniversalViewer Arch. G b.6 DMT PROGRESS DMT PROGRESS
21. Research of existing tools and libraries To name a few: Grunt, Node.js, jQuery, Karma, underscore.js, pubsub.js, handlebars.js, URI.js, mousetrap.js, ZeroClipboard.js, d3.js, state-machine.js, tinymce.js, qTip2, sinon.js, Jasmine, Istanbul, Travis and more. DMT PROGRESS DMT PROGRESS

23. UI mockup for Manifest editor Authoring tool easy to use, drag and drop features, editing labels (without *having to type* json) http://invis.io/CT3BSFX3M DMT PROGRESS DMT PROGRESS
24. Few tests Using JSON Editor as base But a change on the project is near… I’m looking to reuse http://tinyurl.com/dmt-sample https://github.com/IIIF/manifesto DMT PROGRESS DMT PROGRESS
