The World Digital Library

[Dave Monroe]

The World Digital Library will launch on April 21, 2009.

The World Digital Library will make available on the Internet, free of
charge and in multilingual format, significant primary materials from
cultures around the world, including manuscripts, maps, rare books,
musical scores, recordings, films, prints, photographs, architectural
drawings, and other significant cultural materials. The objectives of
the World Digital Library are to promote international and
inter-cultural understanding and awareness, provide resources to
educators, expand non-English and non-Western content on the Internet,
and to contribute to scholarly research.
