A '''distributed library''' is a collection of materials available for borrowing by members of a group, yet not maintained or owned by a single entity. The [[library]] catalog is maintained on a database that is made accessible to users through the [[Internet]]. An early example of this style of library (if not the first of its type) is the Distributed Library Project of the [[San Francisco Bay Area]].
