According to the image shown in point 3 and as a complement of texts in image mood, the DscD makes possible the access to the same, in text mood.

Indeed, through the list of document's links, the user can also access to the complete work of Kant provided by the IKP of the University of Bonn, clicking the respective icon. This way and following the steps you already know, you will gain access to the page, in text mood, provided by this institution.

To conclude this chapter, I would say that the DscD can be considered as a platform to improve and increase the access to documents provided by different institutions or persons.
