Manuscripts, prints, books, magazines and newspapers digitized and presented.

properties

The software package consists of the two main components Kitodo.Production and Kitodo.Presentation . These are suitable for different digitization strategies and scalable business models.

Kitodo.Production supports the digitization workflow . Technically, it is a Java application that typically runs on a Linux system with Apache Tomcat and a MySQL database. The user interface is browser-based and therefore independent of the operating system.

Kitodo.Presentation enables the public presentation of the digitized material. This software is an extension of the free content management framework TYPO3 in PHP. It is used, for example, in the DFG Viewer, the reference implementation for the digitization standards of the German Research Foundation .

The German Research Foundation also funds the further development of Kitodo.

Further components of Kitodo are Kitodo.Publication (a TYPO3 module that provides a document server), Kitodo.Contentserver and Kitodo.UGH.

user

The following archives and libraries use Kitodo for the digitization and presentation of digital collections:

Software that explicitly offers interfaces to Kitodo offers further application possibilities, for example the virtual research environment for the humanities FuD at the University of Trier.
