The Collection Workflow Integration System (CWIS, pronounced SEE-wis) is a free, open source software package designed to help assemble, organize, and share information about resources online. The software conforms to international and academic standards for metadata while providing turnkey setup and a user-friendly interface, allowing resource collection developers (and end users) to focus on what they want to share (or find) without worrying about the technical details.
CWIS provides extensive support for cataloging resources with standardized metadata, which can then be automatically shared via an array of channels out to the larger Internet community, helping others find your work. CWIS was developed by Internet Scout with support from the National Science Foundation.
