No need to pay those pesky late book fees: introducing the World Digital Library.

Kudos to the Library of Congress for exponentially expanding the Web’s cultural depth and breadth. The WDL initiative definitely makes the Internet feel a little more global. It
gives users the ability to search for information in seven different languages and narrow searches by parameters such as geographic area, historical era, and type of media.

If I needed to do a book report on the history of commodes, I can tell you what kind of “throne” a Roman might be sitting on and show you the blueprints in the original Latin. Brilliant bathroom reading!
