[Web4lib] Photo Repositories

[M. Claire Stewart]

Yesterday, JISC released a new document "Systems for Managing Digital 
Media Collections" that does a nice job of covering image management 
systems: 
<http://www.jiscdigitalmedia.ac.uk/crossmedia/advice/systems-for-managing-digital-media-collections/>

(we use MDID for teaching images but are in the process of migrating 
it to Fedora, upon which we've built digital library collections, see 
http://digital.library.northwestern.edu/mapsofafrica and 
http://digital.library.northwestern.edu/winterton )
