The China Digital Library Corp Ltd has announced an ambitious plan to develop a digital content service platform in a bid to solve the copyright issue concerning on-line resources.

The corporation has signed an agreement with Enpia System, a leading Korean DOI (Digital Object Identifier) provider to build such a service platform.

An official with D-Library said, the boom of the Internet has offered quick access to digitized content but the copyright issue has been thorny for both providers and users.

As the most complete marketing and services system pertinent to digital libraries across China, the D-Library will adopt the technology of Enpia System to identify audio-visual contexts, photos and essays in their virtual library.

Relying on the National Library of China's abundant resources, the nation-wide information organization and services network, the D-Library, will specialize in production of digital content, overall solutions to digital technologies and construction of digital repositories. It will provide professional and systematic multi-media information content services actively by using core digital library technologies and advanced operating concepts.
