On a Sunday, Opamp surfed the databases searching for the papers with keywords
Information Retrieval. After downloading the suitable papers,Opamp created new folder and saved those papers. There, got the paper titled
Library Goes Mobile. As the paper is scanned, the whole page can be seen.
The paper is from the journal named School Library Journal, issued in
May, 2009. There is a tip, site of the month, on same page of the paper, which
is one-third of the page on left side. It is written about a site called World
Digital Library http://www.wdl.org/.
The tip said:
The WDL (world digital library) has the collections from all over the world in which the viewers can access manuscripts, maps, rare books, films, audio, and photographs that relate to the history and culture of the 193 member countries of UNESCO. WDL provides a global context.
The writer of the tip is Kathy Ishizuka.
On September 18, 2011, while rewriting this
article for Sites-Intro, there are 2526 collections in total from 8000 BC to
2010 AD.

After reading that tip, Opamp typed
www.wdl.org in address bar and browsed the site. The home page shows the world
map which describes the resources available in the digital library.
On September 14, 2009, there were 1208
