The image content is processed on-the-fly by a Java Servlet on the server side so that only the visible portion of the image is sent to the web browser on the client side. </li> <li> <tt>digilib</tt> supports a wide range of image formats and viewing options on the server side while only requiring an internet browser with javascript and a low bandwidth internet connection on the client side. </li> <li> <tt>digilib</tt> enables very detailed work on an image as required by scientists with elaborate zoom features like an option to show images on the screen in their original size. </li> <li> <tt>digilib</tt> facilitates cooperation of scientists over the internet and novel uses of source material by image annotations and stable references that can be embedded in URLs. </li> <li> <tt>digilib</tt> is used in the <a href="http://penelope.unibe.ch/docuserver/echo/alcatraz/index3.html">ALCATRAZ</a> framework of image, text and annotation tools and many other projects. </li> <li> <tt>digilib</tt> is Open Source Software under the General Public License, jointly developed by the <a href="http://www.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de">Max-Planck-Insitute for the History of Science</a>, the <a href="http://philoscience.unibe.ch">University of Bern</a> and others. </li> </ul> <a name="howtoget"></a> <h2> Where can I get <tt>digilib</tt> </h2> <p> <tt>digilib</tt> source code, binaries and documentation can be found on the <a href="http://developer.berlios.de/projects/digilib/">digilib project pages</a> on <a href="http://developer.berlios.de">BerliOS</a>. </p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td style="padding: 0px" align="left"> <a href="http://developer.berlios.de"> <img src="http://developer.berlios.de/bslogo.php?group_id=0&type=1" width="124" height="32" border="0" alt="BerliOS Logo" /> </a> </td> <td></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html>
