SULU ONLINE LIBRARY is an independent, non-partisan and non-profit site.
Its primary mission is to serve as a database for Sulu Studies.
It aims to support education, encourage research and elevate scholarship related to the Sulu Archipelago and the Philippines at large.
It aspires to preserve the literary and cultural heritage of Sulu and reclaim those that have been lost, neglected or forgotten.
Sulu Online Library participates in a global effort to establish a digital infrastructure for the preservation, reproduction and dissemination of knowledge. It strives to research, consolidate, digitalize and curate library materials; share those licensed under Creative Commons and re-create those classified under Public Domain.
This library is a work in progress and is still far from reaching its baseline. As of this writing, it is composed of several sections and a growing number of affiliate sites. In the course of time, a combination of these sites shall transform Sulu Online Library into a huge digital infrastructure providing free access to information and knowledge.
