It aims to promote international understanding by providing free access to significant cultural treasures from all countries and cultures. The WDL includes manuscripts, maps, rare books, and other cultural materials, available in multiple languages. By offering insights into the world's diverse cultures and histories, the WDL demonstrates the power of digital libraries to bridge cultural divides and foster a deeper appreciation of global heritage.
