The software are almost same. The IR software offer a functionality for digitisation or for digital libraries too.

The software is integrated one with all the functions useful for the library operations.

For example DSpace is an open source repository software which has a functionality for digital archives.

there exists technical differences between IR and Digital libraries in their implementation and functions but where as the software modules are created for having both functions

Digital Commons, eprints, green stone, fedora commons and Dspace are both IR and digital softwares

Thank you so much for the info. Is this possible to  provide some source to know more about IR and DL s/w. ?
