What is this Service?
Omeka was a free, open source content management system for online digital collections. As a web application, it allowed users to publish and exhibit cultural heritage objects, and extend its functionality with themes and plugins. A lightweight solution in comparison to traditional institutional repository software like DSpace and Fedora, Omeka had a focus on display and used an unqualified Dublin Core metadata standard.
