Invenio is an open source software library management package that provides the tools for management of digital assets in an institutional repository. The software is typically used for open access repositories for scholarly and/or published digital content and as a digital library.

Invenio is developed by the CERN Document Server Software Consortium and is freely available for download.

History

Prior to July 1, 2006 the package was named CDSware, then renamed CDS Invenio,[2] and now known simply as Invenio.[3]

Standards

Invenio complies with standards such as the Open Archives Initiative metadata harvesting protocol (OAI-PMH) and uses MARC 21 as its underlying bibliographic format.[4]

Support

The service provider TIND Technologies, an official CERN spin-off based in Norway, offers Invenio via a software-as-a-service model.[5]

Users

Invenio is widely used outside of its original home within CERN, including SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, Fermilab, and the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne.[5] SPIRES migrated to INVENIO in October 2011 with the INSPIRE-HEP site, a joint effort of CERN, DESY, SLAC and FNAL.[6]

The package was recently chosen to be the digital library software of all national universities in the western Africa regional economic community UEMOA which includes 8 countries : Benin, Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Guinea-Bissau, Mali, Niger, Senegal, Togo.[7]
