  2. Definitions of ‘Digital Library’ (1) A networked collection of digital objects -- text, still images, moving images, sound, data -- with arrangement, search features and metadata that allow for discovery and presentation, supporting research and teaching, and with attention paid to architecture, persistence, longevity, and digital preservation.

  3. Definitions of ‘Digital Library’ (2) A collection of digital information objects; the services that support users in locating, retrieving, and accessing these information objects; the methods used to organize and present those objects; and the information technologies by which they are made available to users.
