7/9/24, 1:41 PM Digital Knowledge Hub: Leading Arab platform for education and scientific research
communities and educational institutions. Meanwhile, the third portal, ‘Children and Students Portal’,
offers a vast collection of stories and books for children and young people, which is abundant with
recreational knowledge content that will elevate their learning experience innovatively and
entertainingly.
The DKH has created 20 specialized libraries, recognizing the urgent need to provide specific books and
knowledge sources in alignment with their unique requirements and categories, as well as the key role in
facilitating research and other related efforts. These libraries are classified by areas of knowledge. Some
of the vital libraries are the Artificial Intelligence Library, Energy Library, University Library, School
Library, Legal Library, Economic Library, Literary Library, Historical Library, Space Library, Children’s
Stories Library, Sustainable Development Library, Arabic Language Library, etc.
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
