Return to Service - October 2024
UCD Digital Library is back working after a period of disruption. Our Mirador image viewer has been replaced with Universal Viewer, while we continue to make improvements; and some of our collections are not working as expected yet. As we update our documentation, please contact the team at digital.library@ucd.ie if you would like assistance.
Ethical Cataloguing Guidelines
UCD Digital Library are very proud to launch our Ethical Cataloguing Guidelines. The guidelines were extensively researched and compiled by our metadata librarian, Órna Roche, and demonstrate our commitment to describing material accurately, respectfully, and in a way that will not cause distress or offence.
New Mirador Help Video Tutorials
We now have a series of tutorial videos on how to use the Mirador Image Viewer's exciting new features, including an introduction to Mirador, Saving and Sharing Images, and using Maps.
UCD Digital Library has upgraded its default image viewer for visual resources to Mirador version 2.5.2. Mirador, a IIIF-compliant viewer, now includes further enhancements, including a View Map tool, a 'lock zoom' tool, a Transcription tool (where appropriate), and more detailed Help.
