Overview
The APS has recently begun the migration from ContentDM to Islandora
• Why• Requirements• Results
![Page 3: Quick and dirty islandora](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062303/5562c27ad8b42a13618b51d1/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Why Islandora?
• Beefs with ContentDM– Expensive– Proprietary– Preservation concerns– Disconnect between datastreams– Clunky interface– OCLC’s development schedule

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

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)

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.)

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)
