Omeka is a free, flexible, web-publishing platform for the display of library,
museum, archives, and scholarly collections and exhibitions.
Omeka brings Web 2.0 technologies and approaches to academic and
cultural websites to foster user interaction and participation. Omeka is designed with non-IT specialists in mind, allowing users to focus on content and
interpretation rather than programming. It makes top-shelf design easy with a simple and flexible templating
system. Until now, scholars and cultural heritage professionals looking to publish collections-based research and
online exhibitions required either extensive technical skills or considerable funding for outside vendors. Omeka puts
the power and reach of the web in the hands of academics and cultural professionals themselves.
