  2. Schema • The Digital Library of Catalonia (BDC) Licensed information Catalan information • e- repositories CBUC collective e- repositories CBUC members local e- repositories

  3. Licensed information - Joint licensing - Local use Better prices More information Less work Catalan information - Local production - Joint dissemination More uses & visibility Lower risks Lower prices Digital libraries

  4. The Digital Library of Catalonia • One objective • Provide a multidisciplinary set of e-information for the university and research community • Two directions • Licenses • Catalan contents
