International Children's Digital LibraryThe ICDL Foundation's goal is to build a collection of books that represents outstanding historical and contemporary books from throughout the world. The materials included in the collection reflect similarities and differences in cultures, societies, interests, lifestyles, and priorities of peoples around the world. The collection's focus is on identifying materials that help children to understand the world around them and the global society in which they live. The Foundation aspires to have every culture and language represented so that every child can know and appreciate the riches of children's literature from the world community.
