Finding IIIF¶

This document explains how to find IIIF manifests and image responses at TAMU libraries.

Presentation API and Manifests¶

The IIIF Presentation API provides the information necessary to allow a rich, online viewing environment for compound digital objects to be presented to a human user, often in conjunction with the IIIF Image API.

This section describes where to find IIIF presentation manifests across our various platforms.

Avalon¶

In Avalon, the manifest identifier can be found by clicking the Share button.

You can pass that URL to a viewer like RAMP or Theseus.

Spotlight¶

In Spotlight, the IIIF link is often clear from the browse page.

If it’s not, you can see the IIIF link inside the Mirador viewer like this:

SAGE¶

Similarly, in SAGE, you can see the manifest link in browse:

Or in the viewer itself:

OpenOni¶

While not publicized, all items in OpenOni are represented by a IIIF manifest. You can get a copy by add .json to the end of the URL.

For instance, the Battalion is available as IIIF.

No IIIF¶

Internet Archive BookReader does not have IIIF.
