| Title: | Institutional Imaging: Sharing the Campus Image (ID: CNC9341) | | Author(s): | Carl W. Jacobson (University of Delaware) | | Topics: | Client and Server, Digital Imaging | | Origin: | CAUSE Conferences (Archives) (1993) | | Type: | Articles, Papers, and Reports | | Abstract: | The University of Delaware's campus-wide information system, U-Discover!, uses the Gopher client-server software developed by the University of Minnesota to provide an easy-to-use, wide-reaching, powerful information service.Delaware is currently integrating photographic and document imaging with U-Discover! text to provide an exciting and effective new level of service. One such application provides access to institutional photographic and historical records. A library of two-thousand 35mm color slides, depicting campus facilities, programs and activities, has found a home in U-Discover!.This library may be browsed by faculty, staff and students to locate and identify slides for use in publications or presentations. Text-to-image links allow full-text description searches to return color images across the network to PC, Mac and Unix workstations.Using inexpensive hardware and freely-available software, Delaware's campus-wide delivery of institutional images is easy, inexpensive and highly effective. | | View this resource: | |
