[WEB4LIB] software for building online image database

[Bill Jordan]

We have built several image databases using the Content multimedia archive
software developed at the Center for Information Systems Optimization here
at the University of Washington.  Have a look at
http://content.lib.washington.edu/ for examples, and
http://content.engr.washington.edu/ for information on the software.
