Is there any way to add an iframe to item metadata? We would like to insert the Internet Archive mini-book reader because some of our files are too large to display using the docs viewer.

Are the books you're looking to display stored at the Internet Archive?
From looking at openlibrary.org, it would appear that only books hosted at the Internet Archive can be displayed by simply including an iframe tag.
Using this reader for files hosted from your Omeka install looks like it would be somewhat more complicated.
Anyway, while it's possible to do some workarounds and directly include an iframe in a metadata field, it would be cleaner to leave the metadata as metadata and use a plugin to read the URL out from the item metadata and insert the iframe.

The materials we want to display are stored with the Internet Archive. So, ideally I'd need to write a custom module to get things working properly without being hacky?
Thanks,

Hi,
it's been a long time but in case someone wonders, there's a bookreader plugin available for omeka but not listed on omeka.org.It's available there : https://github.com/jsicot/BookReader and can be seen running there : http://bibnum.univ-rennes2.fr/items/show/484

I'm trying to give it a try, but I'm not seeing how to set it all up. Do you have any documentation or guidance for how to implement it in a site? Thanks!
