IIIF: Global Image Access

The International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) is quickly becoming the global standard for image delivery and access in both library and museum communities.  
At Harvard, IIIF is being adopted throughout Harvard Library, Harvard Art Museums, HarvardX, and many other departments across campus.  For more information, see Harvard IIIF.
