DSpace Development Fund

CONTRIBUTE TO OUR FUNDRAISING EFFORTS

What Is Our Development Fund?

Launched in March 2022, the DSpace Development Fund enables contributions to help support features prioritized by DSpace Leadership. While the best way to support DSpace is still through membership, the DSpace Development Fund provides an alternative path to supporting the critical development work and sustainability of DSpace.

Are you interested in supporting the DSpace Development Fund?

Here are some ways you or your institution can support DSpace:

Become a Member

The best way to support DSpace is still through membership. A large portion of membership fees go directly into the development of DSpace. If your organization is not a member yet, please join us!

Increase Your Membership

If your organization is already a member, increase your membership fee one time only or on a recurring basis. We’ll count the increase toward the DSpace Development Fund.

Make a One-Time Contribution

If your organization can’t commit to membership but would like to support DSpace development, you can make a one-time contribution of any size to the DSpace Development Fund.

Make an Individual Contribution (Outside of Your Organization)

If you would like to make an individual contribution (outside of your organization), you can make a one-time contribution to the DSpace Development Fund. 

Contact us at DSpaceDonations@lyrasis.org if you would like to know more and contribute.

DSpace continues to grow and evolve to support open repositories because of generous contributions of time and resources by the global DSpace community. Please consider contributing to help us maintain this critical development work and to enhance the software you use.
