SobekCM : Digital Content Management System

About SobekCM

SobekCM is the software engine which powers  the University of Florida Digital Collections (UFDC), Digital Library of the Caribbean (dLOC), and many other digital repositories.

SobekCM allows users to discover online resources via semantic and full-text searches, as well as a variety of different browse mechanisms. For each digital resource in the repository there are a plethora of display options, which may be selected by an appropriately authenticated use. This repository includes online metadata editing and online submissions in support of institutional repositories.

SobekCM is released as open source software under the GNU GPL license and can be downloaded from the SobekCM Software Download Site.

SobekCM was initially developed at the George A. Smathers Library at the University of Florida by a team led by Mark Sullivan, with ongoing effort spanning several departments. Additional user testing, input, and resources have been contributed from other libraries, universities, and archives around Florida, the Caribbean, and beyond. See the credits for more information.

Community and Open Code Sources

The SobekCM Community is supported by two core groups: the SobekCM Users Group and the SobekCM Developers Group. Each group has an email discussion list for users and potential users of the SobekCM system. Both are great places to get started, report problems, and ask questions:

There are two locations available to grab the latest stable, released code, or the last daily build.
