Abstract

After passing more than one decade of appearance of digital libraries in Iran, they couldn’t meet their real mission, which is responding to audience needs. Surely, this problem is affected by potentially and real factors. So this research wants to recognize resistant factors and driving factors by recourse oriented approach, and then to fit them in integrated model.
Research method which we apply is grounded theory, we use systematic method in three level and steps. Research data is collected from documented research, twenty deep interview with digital library experts. After coding step, this data sit in paradigm model format and development digital library model of Iran formed.
