Abstract

Nowadays, it is crucial to have access to a large collection of organized information. A new and important topic in this field is the digital library, which is a solution in all kinds of scientific and academic fields. The book entitled Digital Libraries: The Information Exchange is also a worthwhile endeavor in this regard. Thus, the present article attempted to critically review this book without any bias and only to promote the work and guide its audiences while pointing to the valuable points, highlights, weaknesses, and shortcomings to widen the scope of such discussions. First the book and the author are introduced and then the book is reviewed in both form and content. Appearance and writing features of the work are considered in form criticism, and issues such as rational order, resource validity, scientific quality, innovation, and adaptability were addressed in the content section and suggestions were finally made to solve the deficiencies.
