Cultural Collections IIIF

The University of Leeds Libraries' Cultural Collections are IIIF-enabled through a digital library infrastructure built in partnership with Digirati (IIIF Image API at the access end, OCFL at the preservation end). Tens of thousands of digitised manuscripts, rare books, artworks and coins expose IIIF Manifest URLs from their catalogue records. No published developer reference or fixed manifest base URL was confirmed; manifests are discovered per-record from the Special Collections catalogue.
