Biblioteca Virtual Miguel de Cervantes
Biblioteca Virtual Miguel de Cervantes hot2
"Es la primera gran biblioteca española que se inaugura con un clic de ratón. Emilio Botín, presidente del Banco Santander Central Hispano (BSCH), pulsó ayer el botón a las doce en punto y abrió en la Universidad de Alicante la Biblioteca Virtual Miguel de Cervantes, con 2.000 obras clásicas de la lengua castellana que cualquier persona con acceso a Internet puede copiar gratuitamente. En unos años se prevé elevar esa cifra a 30.000 títulos. Están Cervantes, Quevedo y Lope de Vega, pero también Clarín, Pardo Bazán o Larra, algunas de cuyas obras fueron las primeras en ser digitalizadas e introducidas en la base de datos de la biblioteca virtual. Y junto a los españoles hay una nutrida representación de latinoamericanos: cubanos como Alejo Carpentier, pero también el liberador José Martí, representantes de la etapa colonial como sor Juana Inés de la Cruz o el Inca Garcilaso y de las nuevas repúblicas como Rubén Darío o Mario Benedetti." (El País Digital 7/28/99)
