There are several packages available to setup an OAI provider, some popular examples:

- file-based, Tomcat web application written in Java: [jOAI](https://github.com/NCAR/joai-project) (some centres have good experiences with this one)
- database-based, written in PHP: [oai-pmh-2](https://code.google.com/p/oai-pmh-2/)
- library to connect to a Java application: [OAIProvider](https://svn.clarin.eu/OAIProvider/tags)

More tools to setup an OAI data provider can be found [at the OAI webpage](http://www.openarchives.org/pmh/tools/tools.php).
