“The rise of digital libraries is fairly new. Its most primitive ancestry can be traced back 15 years – not nearly long enough for it to have found a niche as a subject at many institutions of higher learning. As a result, it is relatively difficult to find adequately trained individuals who can design and add to these digital libraries. All of that, however, is about to change. As of Jan. 1, Virginia Tech and the University of North Carolina have been working together towards providing a quality educational curriculum on the development and preservation of digital libraries.”
