ONe DL : Open Network Of Digital Libraries
Digital Libraries are virtual spaces that mediate access,use and generation of knowledge.
The Corporation of Universities for the Development of Internet in Mexico (CUDI) promotes the development of digital libraries. The Open Network of Digital Libraries (ONeDL, or "RABiD" after its initials in Spanish) integrates and consolidates efforts of CUDI members to promote federated access to their collections and services. Software and standards will be produced in order to facilitate the inclusion of more Digital Libraries into ONeDL.

Famous quotes containing the words open, network and/or libraries:
“One merit in Carlyle, let the subject be what it may, is the freedom of prospect he allows, the entire absence of cant and dogma. He removes many cartloads of rubbish, and leaves open a broad highway. His writings are all unfenced on the side of the future and the possible. Though he does but inadvertently direct our eyes to the open heavens, nevertheless he lets us wander broadly underneath, and shows them to us reflected in innumerable pools and lakes.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Of what use, however, is a general certainty that an insect will not walk with his head hindmost, when what you need to know is the play of inward stimulus that sends him hither and thither in a network of possible paths?”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“To me, nothing can be more important than giving children books, It’s better to be giving books to children than drug treatment to them when they’re 15 years old. Did it ever occur to anyone that if you put nice libraries in public schools you wouldn’t have to put them in prisons?”
—Fran Lebowitz (20th century)
