  Description:
  Greenstone is a suite of software for building and distributing digital library collections. It provides a new way of organizing information and publishing it on the Internet or on CD-ROM.
  
  The aim of the Greenstone software is to empower users, particularly in
  universities, libraries, and other public service institutions, to build
  their own digital libraries. Digital libraries are radically reforming
  how information is disseminated and acquired in UNESCO's partner
  communities and institutions in the fields of education, science and
  culture around the world, and particularly in developing countries.
  
- The complete Greenstone interface, and all documentation, is available
- in English, French, Spanish, Russian and Kazakh. Greenstone also has
- interfaces in many other languages. We are looking for volunteers to add
- new language interfaces and help maintain existing ones.
- 
- Windows and Linux versions available, so good for wide range of users
- and applications, in cross platform organizations.
