Digital Asset Management Systems
Open up your digital asset repositories to the public through the Joomla! content management system. Display and browse digital assets, retrieve related items and search communities and collections and build exhibitions and galleries using your digital assets without having to install and manage complex software.
You can even retrieve digital items from multiple archives whether they are your own or others, to create feature-rich mashups of digital repositories.
Only uses open standards such as the Open Archive Initiative (OAI), Dublin Core, Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard (METS) and Search/Retrieve via the Web or URL(SRW/U) to collect, display and search compliant digital asset management systems such as DSpace.
J-CAR provides the Joomla! Content Management System with the ability for its users to search, browse and display items contained in the DSpace Digital Asset Management System within a content framework. Joomla! administrators, managers and authors can now build content rich sites which include meta data and assets from digital repositories, as well as FAQs, news feeds, blogs, tutorial and more. J-CAR uses open standards such as OAI-PMH, SRW/SRU and OpenSearch? to filter and retrieve digital assets. It includes realtime interrogation of one or more repositories, processing of assets to web ready derivatives and embedding rich media into article content. The J-Car Suite of Joomla! extensions includes the main Joomla! Component, a search plugin for SRW/U and OpenSearch?, a plugin for rendering an asset into a page, a module for displaying related keyword searches of the current asset, and an editor button for easy syntax editing in a content item.
