Digital

Hello, I started building a digital library in Drupal for a digital library class. So far I've run into what seems like unending stumbling blocks. I'm using a Dublin Core module that relies on XC to create my metadata fields. However, now I'm having trouble figuring out the best way to create an individual gallery display with thumbnail navigation.

Has anyone here ever created a digital library in Drupal? Do you have any tips, what modules you used, etc.?

Thanks!
