***UPDATE***

ARP is pleased to announce that Collex, the social software and knowledge discovery tool powering the NINES federation of scholarly resources, is officially open source! We’ve been sharing and collaborating on a small scale with other programmers for some time, but have now made our Collex codebase available for anonymous download at:

https://subversion.lib.virginia.edu/repos/patacriticism/collex/trunk/

To communicate with other Collex developers, please subscribe to our email list, here:

You can see Collex installed and in action in the Mellon-funded NINES project, a federation of some 184,000 digital objects from 40 contributing sources: projects, libraries, journals, and publishers of 19th-century literary and cultural material. Collex also powers Finding the Celtic a newly-founded collaboratory for Celtic Studies, funded by the NEH.
