The following documentation is a work in progress.

Islandora Lite Wiki

This documentation pertains to the UTSC-specific implementation of Islandora 2.0. The full documentation for that project available on the Islandora Foundation github pages site. We are prioritizing migration of content from existing Islandora 7 sites in early 2022 into this system.

Values/Goals/Strategies

  • Adhere to Drupal’s way of doing things & write Drupal modules.
  • Prefer modular to monolithic.
  • Consider accessibility first.
  • Prioritize and test for multilingual support.
  • Preservation is practice: We will monitor the health of content in the system using checksum checking and will serialize to a OCFL object that complies with the bagit specification. These will be stored and monitored in a separate system.
  • We will maintain a playbook to simplify deployment and testing for us and others.

Proposed Migration path

In this first phase (2021) we are focused on how to bring content from an Islandora 7 repository into Drupal 9 starting with Fedora 3.x’s native atom.zip exports, processing them using Python in Jupyter Notebooks, and then importing them using the Islandora Workbench integration into our implementation of Islandora.
