Digital National Library of Chile explained

The Digital National Library of Chile is a platform created by the National Library of Chile on August 19, 2013,[1] on the occasion of the bicentennial of the National Library [2] and seeks to "collect, preserve and disseminate"[3] the information, knowledge, and intellectual production created in Chile in digital support, through the legal deposit law, allowing the integration of the digital services of the National Library, generating a transfer between users who consult analog collections to the digital consultation of the collections, without geographical or temporal limits.[4]

History

The Digital National Library was inaugurated on August 19, 2013, during the presidency of Sebastián Piñera, under the direction of the director of the Dibam, Magdalena Krebs and the director of the National Library of Chile, Ana Tironi.

By November 2014, it already had 80,000 titles, photos, videos, and articles online, and aimed to digitize 167,000 documents.[5]

On August 19, 2015, the "Chilean Web Archive" website was launched,[6] a "service whose objective is to store and preserve various national websites with the purpose of ensuring the availability of information and knowledge generated in digital format, in case of its eventual disappearance".[7]
