Dominicanaonline’s Virtual Library Substantially Increases Access to Dominican Literary Works
Global Foundation for Democracy and Development (GFDD) and Fundación Global Democracia y Desarrollo (FUNGLODE) have recently added an impressive list of publications to Dominicanaonline.org’s Virtual Library, which provides the global community access to a wide repertoire of the best Dominican literature in Spanish. The Library currently features 30 literary works.
The Virtual Library is an important feature of Portal Dominicanaonline.org Launched in November 2005...
The initiative seeks to foster intellectual growth and promote appreciation of Dominican culture. In addition to providing equal access to library materials, the Virtual Library’s digitalized volumes allow for numerous users to read the same book, article or document simultaneously. Restriction free access to all literary works makes the Virtual Library an invaluable teaching tool for classroom instructors.
Digital volumes may be read, downloaded and printed at no cost to the reader. All documents form part of the public domain.
The site’s user friendly “search” feature allows users to search for materials by subject (action, science fiction, drama, children’s literature, social studies, education, geography, history, politics, religion, other) or by genre (biography, short story, essay, poetry, novel, report, document, other). The “advanced search” option allows users to also search for texts by title, ISBN, author, editor, year or content.
The portal section “Recommendations” provides readers access to literary critiques of the Library’s volumes. Moreover, the section “Reader Favorites” features a list of the texts most frequently read by portal users.
