Libera Space

Libera Space Libera Space

A workplace for public teams. Documents, meetings, tasks and notes live in one space, on servers your organisation chooses.

In development

Libera Space is being built now. What these pages describe is where it is going: most of it works today. Some of it is on the way. The details will change as the people who use it tell us what they need.

The home page: today's meetings on a timeline, and the documents to pick up

What it is

Work in a public administration happens in teams: a crisis cell, a project, a service, a group of people across ministries who share a trade. Each team needs the same few things: a place for documents, a way to write them together, meetings and what came of them, the tasks people took on. And it needs a clear answer to "who can see this?".

Libera Space gives each team a space that holds all of it. You open your space and the work is there: the latest version of every document, the next meeting with its papers, the tasks that are late, what changed since you last looked.

In six slides

Open the slides full screen or download them as a PDF.

What it is for

  • Your day

    Today's meetings, the tasks that are due, the documents others changed for you: one page, every morning.

  • Spaces

    A space for each team, reserved to its members, with everything the team works on.

  • Writing together

    Word, Excel and PowerPoint files, and their open equivalents, edited by several people at once, in the browser.

  • Meetings

    A shared calendar, the papers for each meeting, minutes that become a document, and the video link.

  • Sharing

    Always a plain answer to who can open something, and links that end by themselves.

  • On your computer

    The same spaces as a drive on your computer, with Libera Suite for working offline.

What it stands for

Your servers, your rules. Libera Space runs where your organisation decides: in its own data centre, or with a hosting provider it trusts. Nothing in it depends on a service outside your control. More on sovereignty.

Made for the State's own tools. You sign in with ProConnect, a space's discussion can live in Tchap, and meetings can open in Visio. Libera Space uses them as they are, without a modified copy. More for organisations.

Open formats, open source. Documents stay in the formats everyone reads, ODF and Office alike, and you can take a whole space away as one archive at any time. Libera Space itself is under the Apache 2.0 licence.

For everyone. The screens are designed to be used with a keyboard, a screen reader or a zoomed page, following the RGAA. More on accessibility.
