Whois & Analysis for document-center.com

A document is a written, drawn, presented, or memorialized representation of thought.

The word originates from the Latin documentum, which denotes a "teaching" or "lesson": the verb doceō denotes "to teach".

In the past the word was usually used to denote a written proof useful as evidence of a truth or fact.

In the computer age, "document" usually denotes a primarily textual computer file, including its structure and format, e.

g.

fonts, colors, and images.

Contemporarily, "document" is not defined by its transmission medium, e.

g., paper, given the existence of electronic documents.

"Documentation" is distinct because it has more denotations than "document".

Documents are also distinguished from "realia", which are 3 dimensional objects that would otherwise satisfy the definition of "document" because they memorialize or represent thought; documents are considered more as 2 dimensional representations.

A web search engine is a software system that is designed to search for information on the World Wide Web.

The search results are generally presented in a line of results often referred to as search engine results pages (SERPs).

The information may be a mix of web pages, images, and other types of files.

Some search engines also mine data available in databases or open directories.

Unlike web directories, which are maintained only by human editors, search engines also maintain real-time information by running an algorithm on a web crawler.

A library is a collection of sources of information and similar resources, made accessible to a defined community for reference or borrowing.

It provides physical or digital access to material, and may be a physical building or room, or a virtual space, or both.

A library's collection can include books, periodicals, newspapers, manuscripts, films, maps, prints, documents, microform, CDs, cassettes, videotapes, DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, e-books, audiobooks, databases, and other formats.

Libraries range in size from a few shelves of books to several million items.

In Latin and Greek, the idea of a bookcase is represented by Bibliotheca and Bibliothēkē (Greek: βιβλιοθήκη): derivatives of these mean library in many modern languages, e.g. French bibliothèque.
