Digital Library

The National Digital Library (NDL) was initiated in April 2015 under the National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology. The NDL provides a single-window search and browse facility for e-learning resources from various institutions across India. The alpha version of the NDL portal was launched in February 2016 and is accessible to all students, teachers, researchers, and government officials without restrictions. The NDL currently hosts over 5 lakh contents in 70 languages and aims to integrate 100 institutional repositories and register users from 200 participating institutions by March 2018 when Phase I is scheduled to be completed.
