Islandora

Islandora is an open-source digital asset management framework designed to help institutions and organizations and their audiences collaboratively manage and discover digital assets using a best-practices framework. Islandora was originally developed by the University of Prince Edward Island's Robertson Library, but is now implemented and contributed to by an ever-growing international community.

This module contains the core functionality for Islandora, and contains several submodules that support converting files of various types (images, audio, video, pdfs, etc...). Islandora integrates with various open-source services, which can be run in a distributed environment.
