"Desa Informasi" or "Information Vilage"
is the name adopted for the Local eContent (digital information resources with local flavor) development project being carried out in Petra Christian University Library.

"Desa Informasi" can also play an important role in preserving (at least) digitally local historical and cultural heritage, thus preserving the collective memory of a local society.

All Local eContent collections are available for everyone through the Internet for free. Some Local eContent collections are currently available in "Desa Informasi," such as Surabaya Memory, Digital Theses, eDIMENSI, Petra@rt Gallery, Petra iPoster, and Petra Chronicle.

"You, O Books, are the golden vessels of the temple,
the arms of the clerical militia with which the missiles of the most wicked are destroyed;
fruitful olives, vines of Engaddi, fig-trees knowing no sterility:
burning lamps to be ever held in the hand."
RICHARD AUNGERVYLE (RICHARD DE BURY) - Philobiblon
