The genealogist
Knows an ancestor was interviewed for a local history project but can't locate the relevant passage.
KNOWLEDGE SYSTEMS / LIBRARIES
Your Collections Hold Generations of Knowledge.
Make that knowledge easier to discover.
Search beyond titles, keywords, and catalog records. Help patrons find the information they actually need, and turn archived knowledge into a living public resource.
Libraries have always existed to make knowledge accessible. But preserving information and making it usable are two very different things.
Liberate IT helps public, academic, research, and special libraries make digital collections more discoverable, searchable, and useful through semantic search and AI-powered research assistance.

01 / ACCESS IS MORE THAN A CATALOG RECORD
A Library Is Only as Accessible as Its Collections.
Your library may hold thousands of hours of recorded lectures, oral histories, interviews, community archives, educational materials, and digitized documents. But how much of that knowledge can patrons actually find?
Traditional catalogs are excellent at identifying resources. They're less effective at helping someone find a particular idea, explanation, story, or piece of evidence buried inside them.
02
The student
Remembers a concept from a recorded lecture but doesn't know which recording contains it.
03
The researcher
Suspects the archives contain relevant evidence but doesn't know the original catalog terminology.
04
The local historian
Wants to explore what community members have said about a neighborhood across decades of oral histories.
05
The librarian
Spends valuable time helping patrons locate material that exists in the collection but is difficult to discover.
The information is there. Your library has already acquired, preserved, and organized it.
But if patrons can't find it, they can't use it.02 / BUILD ON LIBRARY EXPERTISE
Make Your Collections Work as Hard as Your Librarians.
Librarians have spent generations developing sophisticated systems for organizing and preserving human knowledge. Liberate IT builds on that work.
Index the contents of digital resources so patrons and staff can discover information by meaning, not only by title, subject heading, or exact keyword. Find relevant passages, relationships between resources, and answers to natural-language questions.
Help patrons find more
Search for ideas, people, events, and explanations without knowing which resource contains the information.
Make archives useful again
Turn recordings and documents into resources that can be explored and rediscovered decades after their creation.
Extend librarians' reach
Let patrons answer routine research questions independently while librarians focus on complex research and personal assistance.
Preserve institutional knowledge
Make historical collections, recorded expertise, educational materials, and institutional memory accessible to future generations.
Strengthen public value
Show that collections aren't simply stored. They're being discovered, explored, and used.
Give people better ways to discover the material you have already preserved.
Book a Demo03 / INFORMATION INFRASTRUCTURE
Modern Discovery, Grounded in Your Collections.
Extend the value of your library's knowledge with connected tools for search, research assistance, public discovery, and publishing.
Make knowledge findable by meaning.
Search inside recordings and documents, explore source-grounded answers, and open new paths into the collections your library already curates.
01 / DISCOVERY
LiberSearch — Search Inside Your Collections
Don't just find the resource. Find the information inside it.
Traditional catalogs help patrons locate books, recordings, and documents by descriptive metadata. LiberSearch adds semantic discovery, so a search for “how the railroad changed employment in our county” can surface an oral-history passage even if the speaker used different words.
- Semantic search across indexed content
- Results ranked by conceptual relevance
- Citations linking to original sources
- Timestamp links into audio and video
- Automatic indexing of new content
- Embeddable search for library websites
Give patrons a way to discover the material you have already preserved.
02 / RESEARCH ASSISTANCE
LiberAgents — AI Research Assistance Grounded in Your Collections
Your collections can answer questions. Now patrons can ask them.
Customized AI assistants grounded in your library's indexed knowledge can retrieve source material, explain its relevance, and cite the documents or recordings behind a response.
- Patron research assistants for collection discovery
- Local history guides for community archives
- Educational assistants for indexed learning materials
- Staff knowledge assistants for approved internal information
AI shouldn't replace librarians or make authoritative judgments on their behalf. It should help people make better use of the knowledge the institution already possesses.
03 / PUBLIC DISCOVERY
LiberSEO — Help New Audiences Discover Your Collections
Make your library's knowledge discoverable beyond the library website.
Transform approved audio and video into search-optimized articles that introduce new audiences to the knowledge inside your collections.
- Turn lectures and educational programs into discoverable articles
- Highlight historical and community archive topics
- Create new pathways into digital collections
- Expand the reach of public programming
- Make institutional expertise visible to search engines and AI-mediated discovery
Articles are grounded in original material, increasing discoverability without creating an entirely new editorial workload.
04 / KNOWLEDGE PUBLICATION
LiberBookPub — Turn Archival Knowledge into Books
Some collections deserve more than an index. They deserve a book.
Organize and synthesize collections into coherent, book-length manuscripts using oral histories, recorded lectures, archival interviews, institutional reports, and historical accounts.
- Community and regional histories
- Institutional anniversary publications
- Thematic collections of oral histories
- Biographical manuscripts from recorded interviews
- Books based on educational lectures or archival research
Manuscripts remain subject to historical verification, editorial review, and publication preparation. Your institution has preserved the sources; LiberBookPub can help develop them into something new.
04 / BUILT FOR KNOWLEDGE STEWARDS
Built for the Institutions That Preserve Knowledge.
Different institutions serve different communities. Make each collection easier to explore while respecting the requirements of its people and purpose.
Public Libraries
Make local history, public programs, recorded interviews, and digital resources easier for community members to discover. Support independent research while keeping human assistance close at hand.
Academic Libraries
Help students and faculty discover relevant material in institutional repositories, recorded lectures, special collections, and academic archives. Spend less time searching for existing knowledge and more time using it.
Research Libraries
Make specialized, mixed-format collections more accessible across disciplines and historical periods. Help scholars discover evidence even when terminology differs between collections or sources.
Historical Societies & Archives
Your mission is to preserve the past. Make oral histories, historical interviews, recorded testimony, and digitized materials more searchable, so researchers can uncover stories conventional catalog records cannot adequately expose.
Special Libraries
Corporate, medical, legal, government, and institutional libraries contain specialized knowledge for authorized users. Deploy source-grounded search and research assistance with access and integration needs established during implementation.
05 / LIBRARY DISCOVERY BUNDLES
One Collection. Multiple Ways to Discover and Use It.
Libraries shouldn't need separate knowledge infrastructures for every tool. These bundles combine semantic search with collection-grounded AI assistance, using one shared underlying knowledge library.
The Living Library Bundle
Turn a passive digital archive into a searchable, interactive collection.
Bring together semantic search that finds relevant source material and AI assistance that helps patrons explore and understand it. Choose the capacity that fits, from a focused oral-history collection to a large institutional archive.

Deployments can include unlimited capacity and agents, API access, and institution-specific implementation requirements.
Pricing reflects the combined published prices of the underlying capabilities, with one shared library setup charge rather than separate setup fees. Indexed capacity is expressed in hours of source material; document-heavy or heterogeneous collections may require a customized scope. Bundles supplement existing catalogs and collection-management systems, not replace them. Review access restrictions, integrations, and preservation requirements before deployment.

Where multiple products reuse an existing indexed library, scope additional work without automatically charging for a second library setup.
07 / PRESERVE. DISCOVER. LIBERATE.
Knowledge Preservation Is Only Half the Mission.
For centuries, libraries have stood between human knowledge and oblivion. They have collected what others discarded, preserved what others forgot, and defended the principle that knowledge should remain accessible to the people who need it.
But preservation alone isn't enough. A recording nobody can search, a document nobody can find, or an archive nobody knows how to navigate is knowledge waiting to be liberated.
Your institution has already done the difficult work of preserving it. Now give people the tools to discover, understand, and use it.
Knowledge belongs to the people.
Liberate IT!
