The Role of Digital Library Management Systems in Preserving and Disseminating Religious Spiritual Teachings for Peace and Democracy

Abstract

A Digital Library Management System is a software application designed to efficiently organize and preserve diverse data, documents, videos, and images. In today's fastpaced world, people often lead busy lives and may have limited time to explore religious teachings. The main reason for this lack of engagement is the challenge of finding and accessing extensive religious scriptures. The primary objective of this study is to investigate how digital libraries can be harnessed to provide easy access to religious teachings, ultimately contributing to global peace and preserving democratic values. This study relies on qualitative data sources, encompassing written, electronic, and digital materials housed within digital libraries. Digital libraries present a unique opportunity for fostering interfaith dialogue and promoting cultural understanding. They serve as a platform where individuals from diverse religious backgrounds can explore and study teachings from different faiths, nurturing empathy and mutual respect. Digital libraries make it easy for anyone to access religious teachings from faiths like Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam, all of which emphasize peace, tolerance, and compassion. Digital library management systems serve as a powerful means to convey this message to the world, working to prevent religious conflicts. In conclusion, digital libraries break down the barriers to accessing knowledge and learning. They are widely used by numerous individuals seeking educational resources. Opening up religious teachings to the world through digital libraries provides a solution to the problem of religious conflicts and contributes to the sustainability of our world. This endeavor can be seen as a step toward preserving peace and ensuring the continuation of human existence.
