The resulting product includes a set of tools for subtitles acquisition and a web browser-based digital library prototype that is portable, extensible and interoperable across computing platforms. A digital library prototype is developed to provide full-text search and browse of the subtitle text with single- or parallel-language displays. These subtitles and their bibliographic metadata are then incorporated in an XML-based database structure. Subtitles are extracted from commercial DVD releases and downloaded from the internet. The popularity of motion pictures in digital form has seen a dramatic increase in recent years, and the global entertainment market has driven demands for subtitles in multiple languages.This paper investigates the informational potential of aggregating a corpus of multilingual subtitles for a digital library.
