IIIF is becoming a "de facto" standard for image interoperability. Many libraries and other institutions are aligning to the IIIF framework for image visualization. It will very usefull If we can incorporate to the OPAC bibliographic record, the visualization of images representing the documents using IIIF manifests or using images served in IIIF compatible image servers. Today you can upload images linked to bibliographic records and you can visualize those images as part of the bibliographic record detailed view. With IIIF compatibility, that option can be very open interoperating with images collections that represent the bibliographic record. That will give KOHA a natural connection with digital representations of documents in a descentralized and interoperable way. There are client side solutions as openseadragon and others. The digital representations of documents in images can be in any IIIF images server and collections of images can be linked trough the manifest standarized in the IIIF presentation API. Other LIS are incorporating IIIF interoperability.
Hi Pedro, can you explain a bit more which features would have to be added to Koha?
(In reply to Katrin Fischer from comment #1) > Hi Pedro, can you explain a bit more which features would have to be added > to Koha? 1. Include openseadragon like client side viewer to see IIIF objects in Koha OPAC. In a similar way that you can see today images located in outside servers. That will permits the interoperability with IIIF collections. Drupal for example, created a iiif field to show this kind of resources.
