OpenGl add-on libraries are libraries that work with and depend on OpenGL.

GLU

GLU stands for OpenGL Utility Library. It is an add-on library for OpenGL which provides procedures to: help create texture mipmaps, map coordinates between screen and object space, and create quadric surfaces and NURBS.

OpenRM

OpenRM is an OpenGL scene graph API used for developing high performance and portable 3D/2D/stereo graphics and visualization applications. OpenRM is free (LGPL-ed) and open source.

Open Inventor

Open Inventor is many things:
1) An add-on library to OpenGL.
2) Defines a standard data format (the .iv format) for 3D data interchange.
3) A scene graph API.
4) A windowing system, and platform, independent 3D graphics library, like OpenGL.
5) Successor to IRIS Inventor and predecessor to VRML.
