• Resumen

  • The British Library holds one of the most comprehensive collections of the world’s knowledge. The collection is at the heart of the unparalleled range of services that are provided to national and international users in reading rooms and exhibition galleries and through document supply and bibliographic services. The Library is active in its use of electronic services and digitization to provide effective and ever-wider access to its holdings. One of its main tasks is to collect, preserve, and provide access to the United Kingdom’s National Published Archive; extending this remit into the digital domain is a critical responsibility going forward
