Overview:

Most institutions make use of Digital Library systems (DL) to deal with the information they use. DL systems allow them to provide information management services, including the ability to search through and browse the information they have made available. The current architecture of the systems however, does not scale well when the amount of information increases dramatically. A good example of a digital library would be a national collection of academic theses. Such a system provides anyone the service of searching, browsing and viewing the theses in its collection. These services allow users to effectively and efficiently locate and make use of the materials available. With an increase in the number of users and underlying information these systems degrade quite rapidly though.
