ABOUT US
Meet Discovery Garden
We help organizations steward their most prized digital objects.
Discovery Garden builds and runs institutional repositories & digital collections for libraries, galleries, museums, and archives to preserve and access their prized digital assets. From scans of Babe Ruth’s telegrams held at the Baseball Hall of Fame Archives to historic construction photos of the Golden Gate Bridge at the San Francisco Public Library, Discovery Garden is dedicated to helping organizations safeguard and share their prized digital assets.
For more than 15 years, Discovery Garden has been building these systems using the open-source Islandora framework. In fact, in 2010 the founders of Islandora started Discovery Garden to grow and support the Islandora community by providing end-to-end Islandora implementation services.
Today, Discovery Garden has evolved into a trusted professional services partner for institutional repositories & digital collections. While building and running Islandora systems remains a cornerstone of its work, Discovery Garden has also developed deep expertise in Drupal-based systems and offers custom hosting services.
Discovery Garden’s decades of experience and unparalleled expertise with Islandora and the digital needs of libraries, galleries, and museums, make them the organization of choice to create custom, flexible solutions for any organization.
