A digital library is a managed collection of information stored in a digital format and can be accessed over a network. They are technology-enabled platforms where content is available in the form of eJournals, eBooks, magazines, videos, and audiobooks. A digital library gives readers a rich reading experience and quick access to content anytime and anywhere.

Digital libraries today are rapidly becoming the norm at schools and other educational institutes to widen the study materials available for students to learn from and to help them refine their research skills. Even today, many kids in India face unique challenges when it comes to getting access to good quality education. Many children in primary schools in remote villages of India have to either travel a long distance to reach their school or they have no teachers to teach them at these schools.

The penetration of the internet is on the rise in India and thanks to the digital revolution, digital libraries are helping students get access to high-quality educational materials. Digital libraries will benefit not only the students but the teachers as well as they can use them to assign group activities for students, upload notes and study tips. They can encourage students to submit assignments online by using the features available in digital libraries.
