description In order to make digital images available in a standardized manner, independent from the collection to which they belong, the community of the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) is developing several application programming interfaces (APIs) and implementing them in open source software. As an accompanying effect, a change in dealing with digitized images can be observed. They are increasingly not only understood as a representation of the ›original‹ anymore, but also as a sequence of coded information. To focus on these different approaches in the understanding of digital imagery is just as important as explaining the interfaces, the software and the functionality. The reflection on the technical approach should set a basis for discussions that extend beyond the IT community. An insight on how cultural heritage institutions react to these processes in their provisioning is complementing those thoughts. The key question is, whether the interaction between use and provision can change the way we work with images.
