InfoNow as originally designed was developed by the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics (NCSSM), Durham, NC, through a U.S. Department of Education Technology Innovation Challenge Grant (1998-2003). NCSSM is a state-wide public, residential, co-education high school for juniors and seniors with high intellectual ability and commitment to scholarship. NCSSM is an affiliate school of the University of North Carolina (UNC) General Administration.
In partnership with the University of North Carolina, NCSSM has migrated the application from a proprietary platform to an open source environment. InfoNow runs on a Content Management and Authentication (CMA) framework developed by UNC, who retains all rights and ownership to this toolset; NCSSM is permitted to distribute a limited version of the CMA toolset, as agreed upon with UNC. NCSSM, through UNC, retains all rights and ownership of the InfoNow module developed to run on this framework.
