Experimenting with GLAM collections using IIIF
play along!
Why I ❤️ IIIF:
- tools and code are reusable
- supports work at scale
- encourages experimentation & integration

via Serverless IIIF
To generate a link to a proxied manifest, first grab the item's IE identifier from the url of the digitised item viewer. For example, the identifier in this url:
https://viewer.slv.vic.gov.au/?entity=IE15485265&mode=browse is IE15485265.
Once you have the identifier, add it to the end of the url:
https://wraggelabs.com/slv_iiif/.
For example, https://wraggelabs.com/slv_iiif/IE15485265.
Add ?group=true to merge manifests for related items.
