The National Digital Library of Korea is located on Banpo-ro in Seocho-gu, Seoul. It is also known as a "dibrary" (Korean: 디브러리), a Konglish word combining "digital" and "library." It was opened in May 2009 after seven years of construction starting in 2002.[1] The budget for the library was 115,200,000,000 Won, which is roughly 102 million USD. The size of the library is 38,013.39 square meters, containing 5 underground floors and 3 ground floors. These floors included space for the collection and user services of digital resources, offices, books, and parking lots. Facilities allow access to over 800 libraries and other institutions around the world,[2] including from the U.S. Library of Congress, and a total of more than 264 million pieces of content.[3] The TV studio and user-created content (UCC) studio contain camcorders and lighting facilities, allowing users to produce, edit and display their own UCC sounds and images.[1] Access is available to foreigners.
