Polona: the National Digital Library, National Library of Poland

Polona, The National Digital Library = Cyfrowa Biblioteka Narodowa, is a digitization project created under the auspices of the National Library of Poland (Biblioteka Narodowa). The digitized material is from the holdings of the National Library, covering the history, literature and culture of Poland. The interface of Polona is for the most part available in both Polish and English, -- allowing for easier navigation thru the site for non-Polish speakers (although a working knowledge of Polish would be a benefit to the user).

The collections are categorized as follows: books; early printed books; ephemera; journals, manuscripts; and visual art.
