About DBC

 
We make knowledge relevant and readily accessible when and where the individual citizen needs it. We cover every facet of library and IT know-how and development resources, enabling us to deliver solutions that structure and communicate knowledge.

Much of the knowledge that is relevant for the user is only found when a connection is created between different information channels. Our strength lies in organising information using a unique combination of core competences. We produce solutions that bind knowledge together between different players:

• As library experts, we describe and index content so that users can find the relevant information.
  
• As IT specialists, we bind knowledge in different systems together by using interfaces based on open standards, and we develop the infrastructure into which the information is to flow.
  
• As communicators, we describe and present knowledge in such a way that it is not just accessible, but also comprehensible and usable.

We support libraries’ efforts to strengthen the knowledge society by developing new knowledge products and expanding their IT infrastructure. We develop the products and services that libraries and library users demand in a dialogue with libraries.

We carry out development in partnerships and supply knowledge products and solutions to libraries and other knowledge-based companies.

Involvement in partnerships benefits libraries in the form of new products. Conversely, our library development and know-how are also relevant to companies and organisations in other sectors that work with knowledge and communication.

We are a public limited company with a total of 160 employees.
