For time-based media, like audio recordings or movies, providing online access presents both technical and curatorial challenges. The University of Texas Libraries recently completed a development project which helps to broaden access to our rich treasure trove of digitized audio and video assets. The Libraries’ search and browse interface for digitized collections now features streaming media, supported by open source software for the UI, as well as the latest version of the IIIF Presentation API.Item Session 3G | Ready for Takeoff: A Demonstration of the Integrated Digital Ecosystem at UH Libraries(Texas Digital Library, 2021-05-26) Scott, BethanyThe Digital Asset Management System (DAMS) Development Team at the University of Houston Libraries has reached an important milestone in building its integrated digital access and preservation ecosystem.

In 2020, UH Libraries launched its digital collections ecosystem that supports efficient digital collections management, effective digital preservation, and integration with ArchivesSpace to better support discovery and retrieval of digital objects. This complex and challenging undertaking resulted in the adoption of a project management approach called Agile using a framework called Scrum. In this presentation, we will give an overview of the DAMS, and describe our project management trajectory from its earliest days, through its transformation into a highly effective team regularly delivering value-added increments to our users and stakeholders. We will give examples of different parts of the agile processes, the pivot points in the project, and the lessons learned from each iteration of our team. We are substantially underway with our migration of collections from CONTENTdm to our new repository and continue to benefit from the success of our Scrum approach.
