Topic Summary (from en.wikipedia.org): A distinction is often made between content that was created in a digital format, known as born-digital , and information that has been converted from a physical medium, e.g., paper, by digitizing . The term hybrid library is sometimes used for libraries that have both physical collections and digital collections. For example, American Memory is a Digital library within the Library of Congress . Some important digital libraries also serve as long term archives, for example, the ePrint arXiv , and the Internet Archive .
