Unified digital repository for Dubai Government and its departments
The DKH offers a centralized digital repository, which includes all the digital knowledge outputs generated by
more than 25 government organizations and departments in Dubai. It acts as a comprehensive collection
portal of annual reports, guidelines, and yearbooks produced by these institutions, ultimately reducing the
cost of creating a separate digital repository. Through these efforts, the platform contributes towards the
conservation and maintenance services for the digital memory of these entities without any additional costs.
It further enables the Dubai Government to reduce extra expenditure and effectively leverage available
resources, resulting in enhanced efficiency and productivity that save time and effort. Besides, it aids users to
seamlessly explore various digital content of these institutions and the government while accessing it through
global search engines. Through this move, the hub will be able to boost the presence of these institutions in
the digital space and raise their contributions to various content in the digital landscape.
Unique approach for a beneficial and enjoyable reading experience
The DKH has crafted a new method to study and analyze the behavior of beneficiaries through the launch of
a new reading synchronization interface. The advanced tools offer users different choices, which enables
them to conduct a smart and thorough analysis of knowledge trends and preferences of the readers.
The specialized libraries included in the platform have comprehensive knowledge maps that direct to various
fields of knowledge in the form of clouds of keywords and grouped words. These clouds showcase the
knowledge structure of each element as well as the quality and availability of each content within different
fields of the library’s knowledge map. This feature enables users to understand the quantity and diversity of
sources across various knowledge domains, making it easier to recognize terminology structures.
Additionally, it helps publishing houses and knowledge production institutes to understand the entire
knowledge representation and map of every industry, as well as identify any knowledge gaps in their libraries.
By concentrating on publications based on demands and usage statistics, these institutions can subsequently
address these gaps.
An open digital horizon toward limitless knowledge
The DKH’s role goes beyond just being an open knowledge platform. For Arab institutions, it offers a
comprehensive solution for building developed digital libraries, substantial knowledge repositories, and safe
digital archives. Furthermore, it stands as the perfect tool for adapting digital solution technologies to the
Arab World, meeting the needs of Arab students and institutions alike.
The platform distinguishes itself from competitors by not placing restrictions on the use of its services for
scientific, knowledge-based and educational research. It is enabled by an optimized approach that removes
the need for traditional login credentials, registration processes and passwords, enabling worldwide access
