Annotations
and IIIF
Wednesday, June 15, 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM ET
Instructor: Glen Robson
One of the most exciting aspects of working with historical collections is when items can be annotated, either through crowdsourcing or machine generated annotations.
This session will cover how annotations work with IIIF and how you can use off the shelf tools to run crowdsourcing or remote teaching use cases for annotating your IIIF collection. The IIIF standards are a set of a community-driven set of technologies developed
by world-leading research, national and state libraries, archives, museums, companies, and image repositories. The combination of standardized ways of accessing images and a/v material and its integration of the W3C web annotation format puts IIIF in a unique
position to support the development of annotation tools and many have been released as open source.
