Abstract: The digital revolution has transformed how knowledge is accessed, disseminated, and preserved. In India, several digital library initiatives have been launched to support open access to education, research, and innovation. Platforms such as the National Digital Library of India (NDLI), ICAR’s KrishiKosh, Shodhganga, and SWAYAM have democratized learning by providing diverse, multilingual, and multidisciplinary content. These initiatives play a vital role in reaching students, researchers, and farmers in remote areas, promoting lifelong learning and supporting national priorities like NEP 2020. This article highlights major digital library platforms, their features, and their significance in India’s evolving education ecosystem.
