#OpenRepo2019 hearing about all the cool new features in DSpace 7 from Tim Donahue - highly customisable front-end using modern web frameworks, configurable entities with relationships in the metadata

The Mahabharata Scroll can be found at collections.ed.ac.uk/mahabharata . The IIIF Showcase and User Group is in Edinburgh week beginning 3 December- DM us if you’re interested in coming- there’ll be loads of interesting material!. #digidoc2018

Think we’re in the right session. Talking directly after great presentations about subjects close to our hearts: historical musical instrument re-creation and St Cecilia’s Hall acoustics! #digidoc2018

@cgknowles @JosephDMarshall OK- we have some digitised content for (at last refresh) 114 Ms/MS and 37 Or.Ms. That's out of 2065 Shelfmarks across LUNA (includes "Coll" types though). Total manifests = 2065 + 400 St C's + 2400 Art + 4060 MIMEd = just under 9000 PLUS Session Papers.

@cgknowles @JosephDMarshall Tell you when I can get on the VPN! :)

Benefits of getting together at a conference- looks like @LunaImaging have the answer to our Mahabharata Scroll performance problem (all about the scaling factors on long, not wide, items!). Watch this space... #iiif
