The Haiti Digital Library is an online library available in English, French, and Kreyol that is meant to serve as a guide and portal to resources all about Haiti, for both its citizens and scholars interested in the country. The content hosted on the website includes both historical materials related to the country as well as published works by Haitian authors throughout time. They are currently accepting comments and suggestions for works that the public would like to see digitized and uploaded to the archive.

The HathiTrust Digital Library is a partnership of research institutions and libraries working to securely preserve historical collections to be accesible long into the future. These collections are open access, and include a wide spectrum of cultures across a variety of different time periods. The partnership has been recently engaged in legal disputes regarding alleged copyright infringement in their Orphan Works Project. In addition to basic access to many of the collections, the HDL offers search functions within the documents that allow for new uses of the texts, such as text mining.
