Digital Collections - 185 Resources

Overview

A collection of library or archival materials converted to machine-readable format for preservation or to provide electronic access (example: Thomas Jefferson Digital Archive, a project of the Electronic Text Center, University of Virginia Library). Also, library materials produced in electronic formats, including e-zines, e-journals, e-books, reference works published online and on CD-ROM, bibliographic databases, and other Web-based resources. In the United States, the Digital Library Federation is developing standards and best practices for digital collections and network access.
