Introduction Digitization started at Public Library Cacak in 2006 First project: web galleries of scanned and manually described postcards and photos from Local History Collections Creation of new web site assumed that web content should be easy accessible for users – getting closer toward E-Library

3. New website of Library in September 2006 –it comprises electronic publications along the first version of Digital Library The Name – E-Library vs Digital Library –Conclusion: Digital Library is part of E-Library, maybe the most important one Stress on information –not static content, better opportunity for information search –not PDF for download, better full text (OCR)
