Description

The Open Library Foundation is a non-profit organization (U.S.-based 501©3) that serves as an administrative and collaborative home for open source projects in the library ecosystem. In addition to providing intrinsic value as a place for collaboration, incubation and networking, it’s capabilities exist to support the operation and sustainability of open source software development.

The OLF is a place for innovation and building an ecosystem of tools and capabilities that will shift the library technology landscape.
