Digital Storytelling involves a few things. It can involve oral history and interviews, archiving and preserving etc. Libraries can define digital storytelling how it best fits their mission and their population of users. kinds the tools and skills necessary to tell their stories and in some instances empowers people. For example in the article, Digital Storytelling in Different Library Settings, a public library defines digital storytelling as this “…story construction within a multimedia framework, involving some combination of digital text, images, video, recorded audio narration, and music or other sound elements” (Czarnecki 23). 

Therefore, digital storytelling can look different and serve multiple purposes depending on the institution. Digital storytelling can focus on individual stories or be on multiple stories. It teaches the participants how to use different programs to enhance their stories and gives them skills they can have forever.
