VIVO
...
When VIVO is installed and populated with researcher interests, activities, and accomplishments, it enables the discovery of research and scholarship across disciplines at that institution. VIVO supports browsing and a search function which returns faceted results for rapid retrieval of desired information.
Content in any local VIVO installation may be maintained manually, brought in to VIVO in automated ways from local systems of record, such as HR, grants, course, and faculty activity databases, or from database providers such as publication aggregators and funding agencies.

This year's I-Fest will be hosted once again by the University of Colorado in Boulder on April 25 & 26 and is current implementers and new adopters at no cost. Please follow developments on the Logistics and planning page on this wiki.

Are you tasked with introducing VIVO to your community? You might find the resources in the Learning about VIVO section of interest. Here you'll find support information such as VIVO Benefits which discusses how different stakeholders can leverage VIVO and VIVO data, VIVO FAQs that have been raised during local outreach presentations, conferences, and emails to project members, and a Semantic technology primers to help you learn about the semantic web, linked open data, and more.
