Repository software
MyCoRe (short for “My Content Repository”) is an open source software framework that institutions can use to create their own document and publication servers, repositories or archive solutions. The software is developed by a community whose members mainly work at German universities and library institutions. The source code is available as free software under the GNU General Public License (GPL) on GitHub.
MyCoRe repositories publish bibliographic metadata, documents, and digital objects like research data, manuscripts, images, audio or video files. The MyCoRe framework provides the necessary functionality to manage, store, retrieve, present and share metadata and digital objects.

Mission

The MyCoRe framework provides functionality of information repositories and
publication servers. Own web applications can be developed with MyCoRe by
configurations and adjustments in XML, XSL and CSS. A rich search function
allows retrieval in metadata, full text and XML structures. Simple, extended or
complex search masks can be defined.
Simple applications can be realized primarily through configuration rather than programming. This makes MyCoRe a framework for creating repository solutions.
