1. Quick and Dirty Islandora
Richard Shrake
American Philosophical Society
2. Overview
The APS has recently begun the migration from
ContentDM to Islandora
• Why
• Requirements
• Results
3. Why Islandora?
• Beefs with ContentDM
– Expensive
– Proprietary
– Preservation concerns
– Disconnect between datastreams
– Clunky interface
– OCLC’s development schedule
4. Why Islandora?
• Based on Fedora Commons and Drupal
– Fedora has the management chops
– Drupal handles the design
• The combination provides a free, open-
source, preservation-minded digital repository
5. Why Islandora?
• All web-based interface
• Based on concept of content models: Your
usage matures with your skills – build what
you want
• Out of the box support for major file types
(large images, sound, pdf) and interface
enhancements (OCR, jpeg2000, flash in-
browser content)
6. Why Islandora?
• File management is paramount
– A digital object is comprised of as many
datastreams as you desire (original
file, presentation file, relationship
metadata, preservation metadata, one or many
descriptive metadata files, etc.)
7. Why Islandora?
• Involved and helpful user community
• Responsive developers
• You can go to PEI for user conferences!
8. Islandora Requirements
• Linux administration knowledge
• Drupal administration knowledge
• Metadata standards knowledge (MODS and
DC)
• A willingness to read error logs
• DIY ethic
9. The APS Experience
• 10,000 objects in ContentDM
(audio, images, and text)
• Spent about 4 months testing and learning
Islandora
• Migrated all audio in about a month (4,700
recordings – over 1 TB!)
• Migrated about a 1/3 of images (deliberate
process – fixing errors)
10. The APS Experience
• Lots of trial and error in building forms to
upload new content
• Currently adding new audio content
• Currently working on security processes for
sensitive materials
