In order to build a digital branch, we first need to know what a digital branch is. How does it differ from a website? This chapter of “Building the Digital Branch: Guidelines for Transforming Your Library Website” gives a brief history of library websites and discusses how library websites and the traditional physical library combine to form the concept of a digital branch.
