INSPIRE

CERN, DESY, Fermilab and SLAC are building INSPIRE, the next-generation High Energy Physics (HEP) information system, which will empower scientists with innovative tools for successful research at the dawn of an era of new discoveries.

INSPIRE combines the successful SPIRES database , curated at DESY, Fermilab and SLAC, with the Invenio digital library technology developed at CERN. INSPIRE will be run by a collaboration of the four labs, and will interact closely with HEP publishers, arXiv.org, NASA-ADS, PDG, and other information resources.

This repository contains all that is needed to run INSPIRE, including a recent invenio-master branch of invenio. Changes to the invenio underpinnings are being committed back to invenio via that site and git repo. There are a number of customizations and specialty pieces that are added that make INSPIRE unique to its purpose.

If you are interested in how INSPIRE works, this repository is for you. If you want to start your own repository at an institution or for a discipline, you should probably start with Invenio and build off of that.
