Hello All,

 

I'm curious to know who has decided to link their TIFFS to TMS for
internal access?  When I was at the MFA, Boston, I remember seeing TIFF
files available for access, but TMS crashed a lot there and I wasn't
sure if it was due to the collection size (enormous, but awesome) or if
it was due to the TIFFs, which are large files themselves.

 

I wanted to know if any other institutions have had technical snafus
since linking TIFFs.  I'm trying to make image access as easy as
possible for staff, an sometimes curators prefer TIFFs over JPEGs to
zoom in. 

 

Our collection size it only about 38,000 objects, which has me leaning
to thinking that it's possible, but any feedback is greatly appreciated!

 

Best Regards,

Sarah Gillis | Assistant Registrar, Image Management
