Mirroring the Genome Browser

Our academic institution would like to install and run the Genome Browser and its databases on our local server. How do we do this? Is there a procedure for updating the data when new tables and assemblies are released?

Non-commercial organizations are welcome to become a Genome Browser mirror site. A license is required for commercial local installation (mirroring) of the Genome Browser. For detailed procedures on creating a full or partial mirror browser, see the mirror site procedures page.
