Fedora is more than open source; it is COMMUNITY source software.

Fedora is implemented and supported by a vibrant, collaborative, international community of stakeholders from a wide variety of organizations, including academic and cultural heritage organizations, universities, research institutions, university libraries, national libraries, and government agencies.

See an active list of Fedora implementations on the Fedora Registry on the Fedora website. If your institution is not listed on the Registry, please consider submitting your implementation. This registry is the most effective method we have for tracking and understanding where our users are, and how they are implementing Fedora. Please take a moment to register your instance today!

As a free and open source software, we rely on our community to fund and support all of our program efforts. Institutions primarily support Fedora by joining as members and allocating funding to the project. However, developers and other community members play a key role in ensuring the software remains operational by building features and fixing bugs and also by providing technical support to their fellow community members.
