Symfony2 is a good choice. I'd like to see something with a clean user experience like Issuu http://issuu.com/ These projects might be related: Calibre http://calibre-ebook.com/ I, Librarian http://www.bioinformatics.org/librarian/ Juan Madrigal Web Developer Web and Emerging Technologies University of Miami Richter Library On 9/8/11 2:26 PM, "Rob Casson" <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> wrote: lots of folks use XTF (http://xtf.cdlib.org/) for ebook collections cheers, rob On Thu, Sep 8, 2011 at 2:22 PM, Yitzchak Schaffer <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> wrote: Hello all, Can anyone suggest projects or general approaches for providing access to digitized books on the web? We're not interested in CONTENTdm, Greenstone has worked for us in the past but will not work for our ongoing projects. I don't have real experience with DSpace and such repository products, but they seemed ill-suited for this purpose when I've examined them in the past. Omeka (at last evaluation) is not compatible with hierarchic objects (like books). I am rather amazed that I have not been able to find any FOSS dedicated to this. I am currently favoring the idea of creating a web app using a decent framework (symfony2) designed for this purpose (web presentation of hierarchic text-based entities).
