= GBIF Integrated Publishing Toolkit (IPT)
The Integrated Publishing Toolkit (IPT) is a free, open source software tool provided by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) and used to publish and share biodiversity datasets through the https://www.gbif.org/[GBIF network]. The IPT can also be configured with a DataCite account in order to assign DOIs to datasets, thus transforming it into a data repository.
Most users should refer to the https://ipt.gbif.org/manual/[user manual] for further information, including https://ipt.gbif.org/manual/en/ipt/latest/releases[downloads], https://ipt.gbif.org/manual/en/ipt/latest/getting-started[installation instructions] and details of the https://ipt.gbif.org/manual/en/ipt/latest/releases[latest release].
In this repository you can find the source code for the IPT software and its https://ipt.gbif.org/manual/[user manual], as well as the https://github.com/gbif/ipt/issues[issue tracker].
