The LIBRARY includes a collection of articles, policy papers and reviews on Internet Governance, the full text of Diplo's Internet Governance booklet and APDIP's Primer on Internet Governance. Particular attention is paid to the Asia-Pacific region with materials from APDIP. The visuals section offers a collection of illustrations, animations, graphs, and maps created by Diplo to depict Internet Governance issues in a straightforward manner.

The DVD is produced by DiploFoundation and APDIP with support from the International Development Research Centre of Canada, Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation, and Global Knowledge Partnership. The DVD was launched at the second World Summit on the Information Society in Tunis.
