A Virtual Library provides
remote (on-line or CD-ROM-based) access to a variety of national and
international content (e.g. curricula, learning materials, books, journals,
magazines, newspapers), services traditionally offered by libraries and
other information sources. The Electronic
Library System provides the latest functions as well as allowing books
to be displayed on screen as if they were printed books. The system makes
advances in retrieving books and papers.
Function:- A Virtual Library becomes the gateway that
provides integrated access to all sorts of resources
and library services both traditional and virtual, and to one’s
own physical and digital collections, and to resources which can be located on
any Internet site, whether public or private.
IMPORTANCE :- THE VIRTUAL LIBRARY PROVIDES
ACCESS TO DATABASES, ELECTRONIC JOURNALS, ALERTING SERVICES,
ONLINE REFERENCE TOOLS AND QUALITY-SELECTED WEB RESOURCES THAT IMPROVES THE
QUALITY OF TEACHING AND RESEARCH. A VIRTUAL LIBRARY IS A
STRATEGY FOR EFFECTIVE LEARNING AND IT PROVIDES ACCESS TO THE ELECTRONIC SUPER
HIGHWAY.
Benefits:- Virtual libraries break
down the physical barriers between users and information sources. Through the
use of audio and video, virtual libraries can also make resources available
to users that are visually and hearing impaired, and they make these resources
available in their homes.
Thanks to Internet and cloud storage, digital
libraries overcome this limitation, expanding students‘ horizons in learning. They can access
an enormous amount of knowledge and share contents with others, facilitating
the expansion of education.
