Libreant - multipurpose archive for digital item, especially books

Libreant is a book manager for both digital and paper documents. It can 
store any kind of digital data actually, not only books. It’s db 
structure (nosql) makes Libreant highly customizable, documents can be 
archived by their types with different metadata set, however you can 
create your own preset and choose default descriptors for that kind of 
volume. The search function looks through over the db, and rank matches 
powered by ElasticSearch. The language of metadata (as title, or 
description) is a compulsory field, since the db will use it to optimize 
the search.

Elements into Libreant are defined as volumes, for each volume you can 
attach many files, usually this files are pdf or book scans. Libreant is 
built and intended as a federation of nodes, every node is an archive. 
 From a node you can search into friend-nodes, with OpenSearch protocol. 
Possible extensions into Web are suspended:
the project is in beta testing and we haven't implemented the second 
level: the network of nodes!

Libreant aims to share, find and save books. It can be used by librarian 
who needs an archive system or to collect digital items in a file 
sharing project.

Libreant is created by InsomniaLab/Avana3.1, a hacklab in Rome.
