ClaudioMartino/IIIF-Downloader
A lightweight Python 3 downloader for IIIF documents
This tool helps researchers, archivists, or digital humanities enthusiasts download entire digital documents from IIIF-compliant online repositories. You provide a web link to a IIIF manifest (a special kind of digital table of contents), and it downloads all the high-resolution images, saving them as sequentially numbered files on your computer. This is perfect for anyone needing to access or work offline with large digital collections like historical manuscripts, maps, or artworks.
Use this if you need to download and store local copies of multi-page digital documents or image collections found on IIIF-compliant archives and libraries.
Not ideal if you only need a single image, are downloading from a site that doesn't use IIIF, or prefer not to use a command-line interface.
