Case Study: The University of Chicago improves access to visual archives with Daminion

The University of Chicago saves tons of time cataloging images with Daminion

The University of Chicago's Oriental Institute needed a way for its global research team to manage a large volume of visual materials from fieldwork and scholarship. Their in-house media database was too slow across continents and too technically complex for non-specialists, hindering adoption and collaboration.

By implementing Daminion, the team gained a unified online database for cataloging and searching assets. Daminion provided a practical, collaborative environment that did not require overly detailed manual descriptions. The solution saved the team significant time and effort, enabling them to upload, categorize, and retrieve project images quickly and reliably.
