Add a manifest from the Library of Congress

The Library of Congress is the de facto US national library. It contains millions of holdings, and many – but not all – of their item images are available through IIIF.

  • Go to the Library of Congress’ Maps collection

  • Choose an item and go to the record page.

  • Scroll all the way to the bottom of the record.

  • The last text entry will be titled “IIIF Presentation Manifest.” Right click on “Manifest (JSON/LD)” and copy the link address.

  • Navigate back to the IIIF Gallery Builder. Paste the the manifest in the top field and click “Add Manifest(s)”

Add 1 or more additional items from the Library of Congress following this same workflow.
