Why Discovery Garden?
Transform digital collections and repositories from clunky, inflexible, end-of-life systems to innovative, modern solutions that can be accessed anywhere, anytime.
Institutions like libraries, galleries, museums, and archives have thousands of valuable, historic assets. These assets need to be organized and secure but also easily accessible for members, staff, and supporters. Your current digital collection is likely built on an end-of-life, legacy system and can not grow with your organization. While technology has advanced in many other departments, your digital assets are housed in hard-to-use systems that are not easily accessible and often unorganized.
When upgrading a digital collection, some organizations choose to build their own while others choose to find
an existing solution to plug their assets into. Both of these options require extensive technical expertise, ample
in-house resources, and hundreds of development hours. Even then,
customization options are often limited, and the solutions can’t accommodate big data requirements or integration with other systems.
Make the move away from expensive and inflexible software or home-grown piecemeal solutions, and join hundreds of organizations benefiting from robust digital collections and repositories that stand the test of time.
