Awesome International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) Awesome

A list of lists of awesome IIIF resources.

The International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF - "triple-eye-eff") is a group of standard APIs around sharing and reuse of media. It is also a growing community of galleries, libraries, archives, museums, companies, and others who develop the standards and interoperable software implementations. Content includes helpful links around each of the standards, demonstrations of their use, and tutorials and presentations. The list is especially helpful for orienting new community members and developers.

Contributing Guidelines

More Resources

The lists below are a great place to start for inspiration and tooling, but they are certainly not complete!

If you have a link or a resource to add, you have a few options:

  • check out the Contributing Guidelines linked just above and submit a pull request yourself if you're familiar with Github worflows
  • open a new issue ticket mentioning the link or resource you want to add and some description, and the community may be able to help add it

Likewise, there are other ways to see how people are implementing IIIF.

  • Github Topics page - This page will show you the Github repositories that self-identify as IIIF-related, with the most recently updated projects listed first.
  • IIIF Community on Zenodo - A Zenodo community for gathering articles and data related to IIIF.
  • IIIF on Mastodon - People, projects and institutions that self-identify as being active within the IIIF Community on Mastodon, a federated social network.

Disclaimer: The lists below are presented in alphabetical order within each section, and do not suggest any recommendation. Likewise, these lists are created for informational purposes only and any links do not constitute an endorsement, recommendation, or favoring by the IIIF Consortium.

Contents

Standards

The IIIF community has developed several standards for interoperable web-based image delivery.

  • Image API - Specifies a web service that returns an image in response to a standard HTTP or HTTPS request.
  • Presentation API - Provides the information necessary to allow a rich, online viewing environment for primarily image-based objects to be presented to a human user, likely in conjunction with the IIIF Image API.
  • Authentication API - Describes a set of workflows for guiding the user through an existing access control system.
  • Change Discovery API - This specification describes changes to IIIF content resources and the location of those resources for providers to harvest, to ultimately allow users to easily find and engage with content available via existing IIIF APIs.
  • Content Search API - Specifies interoperability mechanism for searching within annotations.
  • Content State API - Provides a way to refer to a IIIF Presentation API resource, or a part of a resource, in a compact format that can be used to initialize the view of that resource in any client.
  • External Services API Annex - Describes the set of related services that have been identified as useful to reference from the IIIF APIs.
  • API Annex Documents - List of all API annex documents and API implementation notes.

Feedback is welcome on all IIIF Specifications, including draft versions and works-in-progress -- please send any feedback to [email protected].
