NIOD World War II Image Bank

The Netherlands Institute of War Documentation manages one of the largest collections of wartime images in the world. Their World War II Image Bank website gives access to a selection from their unique digital archive. The success of the website encouraged over 30 other institutes to participate in the creation of a joint database. These include world-famous institutes such as the Anne Frank Foundation, and the Dutch Resistance Museum. Their image collections can be managed using our FRS software. Selections made from their collections are available online. Visitors to the public website can search through the published images, and can order their own copies using the integrated e-commerce features.

FD News and Image Archive

The Financieele Dagblad (FD) is the Dutch equivalent of the Financial Times. They focus on financial and economic news, background information and analyses. They also own a radio station (BNR). This provides up-to-the-minute financial news around the clock. FD editors make frequent use of the thousands of financial reports and news items that arrive each day from press bureaus. Their photo editors are responsible for commissioning and selecting the best possible images, also using press bureaus, and in-house resources. These images are used in print, and on the FD website. Keeping up-to-date with this constant stream of content is their number one priority. BSL was asked to develop an editorial system that could support their editors, and to archive the articles, images and broadcasts produced each day. The result – the FD’s News and Image Archive (NIA).

The ING Group, an international financial organization, was searching for a solution to efficiently manage all its digital material, including brochures, graphics, images, and house style information. BSL was therefore asked to design and develop the ING Image Bank, a custom-made system based on BSL’s FRS software. The ING Image Bank manages tens of thousands of multimedia assets, including house style information and complete brochures, as well as images. The ING not only used this database to manage their assets, but also use the system to deliver collections of design information and images to their design partners, and publishers.

We developed the Boekensalon on the basis of a detailed design produced by a large international branding/web design bureau, implementing every detail of the interface they designed, and linking the literary contents to the title database managed by NBD Biblion (MOM).
