September Classes Spotlight:

Introduction to IIIF

October 8, 11:00 – 12:00 EST

Instructor: Josh Hadro, Managing Director of the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) Consortium

This session will cover the basics of IIIF technology and the current state of development on the specifications, as well as a number of use cases ranging from fun audience engagement tools to bleeding edge uses of the technology in interaction design.

IIIF is a community-driven set of technologies developed by world-leading research, national and state libraries, archives, museums, companies, and image repositories committed to providing access to high quality digitized resources. Currently, there are four primary IIIF specifications for flexible image delivery, presentation, authentication, and search-within functionality, with more specifications in draft form. Real world examples in this session will cover the possibilities unlocked by IIIF tools, from museum-like guided image annotation tours to crowd-sourcing examples and beyond.
