World Digital Library or the World in Union




Wikipedia defines a digital library as  a library in which collections are stored in digital formats (as opposed to print, microform, or other media) and accessible via computers.The digital content may be stored locally, or accessed remotely via computer networks.

 
 
Currently digital libraries exist side by side with traditional libraries. However,  as technology advances, digital libraries expand and develope new and exciting ways to retrieve information. Case in point is the World Digital Library which encompasses the world's cultures under one link. See video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=971ocC4VqHM
