In August 2009, the Punjab Digital Library became live on the internet.
Since 2003, the
Panjab Digital Library has been a non-profit organization dedicated to
digitizing and conserving Panjab's unique culture. It is the largest digital resource in Panjab, with over 38 million digitized pages. Many important historical papers have been digitized and publicly available on the web. Its subject matter includes
Sikh and
Punjabi culture. In August 2009, The Nanakshahi Trust financed an online library that was established. Its headquarters are in Chandigarh, India. The library aims to
find, digitize, conserve, collect, and make available the Panjab region's collected learning, regardless of writing, dialect, faith,
region, or other health appearance.
The Panjab Digital Library is interested in digitizing anything in the Panjab area. It's also eager in digitizing everything related to the Panjab area or written in Gurmukhi script that's lying across the world. PDL is a repository that is being offered as a
library. It digitizes local literature with the same zeal that it digitizes government archives for eternity.
