Working at the source code level opens up several new collaboration possibilities. Most importantly is the opportunity to use GIT and to leverage existing GIT workflows.

Once merged into the official repository, the contributions of undergraduates and novices can be used and leveraged by a number of existing services. The metadata embedded in the text can be re-indexed into the Sentences Commentary Text Archive ([http://scta.info](http://scta.info)). Its status will be updated and visible in the Sentences commentary text viewer ([http://texts.scta.info/index](http://texts.scta.info/index)), annotations will be available in the image viewer ([http://images.scta.info](http://images.scta.info)), and if there is a site that has been created for the entire commentary (e.g. [http://plaoulcommentary.lombardpress.org](http://plaoulcommentary.lombardpress.org)) the most recent version of the text will formatted for reading.

I've recently created some simple bar graphs to illustrate the ultimate potential of the Sentences Commentary Text Archive. (View graphs here: [http://stats.scta.info](http://stats.scta.info)). Besides coordinating the reuse of individual transcriptions, the Sentences Commentary Text Archive can allow us to analyze the entire tradition with accurate metrics for the first time.

These kinds of visualizations are only the tip of the iceberg. As the database progresses and indexes more commentaries and transcriptions, we will be able to (and in many cases already can) build more specific visualizations for particular authors or particular sections of a commentary throughout the entire tradition. For example, instead of looking for the frequency of certain names or quotations throughout the entire tradition, we might look for metrics relevant to Prologues only. Further, we might filter this information by authors living after 1300 or by authors who were Dominicans, Franciscans, etc.

In this post I wanted to share the readme file for the custom script I've made to auto generate IIIF manifests that will be ingested into Sentences Commentary Text Archive and used by the SCTA Image Viewer and by the LombardPress publishing site that will integrate manuscript witnesses into the critical editions Sentences commentaries.
After a lot of work, I've finally been able to fully integrate IIIF images from distributed image services into the LombardPress web publication system. Now, at the touch of button you can quickly toggle images of diverse witnesses for each paragraph, served from different libraries throughout the world. Watch the demo and share.
The site is live at [http://plaoulcommentary.lombardpress.org](http://plaoulcommentary.lombardpress.org). However, I'm still testing, so you'll need an invite to view it. Just email me at jeffreycwitt [at] gmail [dot] com and I'll be happy to send you an invite. I would, of course, be grateful for any and all feedback.

Here's another demo showing how the IIIF api lets us bring together sister witnesses Aarau, Aargauer Kantonsbibliothek, MsWettF 15 (Via ecodices) and Philadelphia, University of Pennsylvania, ms. codex 686 (via Openn) into the LombardPress critical edition platform and the Mirador viewer.
