Digital Divide is nothing but barrieres to have access in the information based on Interent or saved on computers.

Librarians can overcome this problem or librarians can build the gap between the information haves and haves nots with the help of Inter Library Loan facility or resource sharing.

The digital divide refers to the gap between people who possess regular access to technology, (such as computers and their related functions like ability to get on the Internet), and those who do not have this access.

for rest you can access the wikipedia

I think library should bridge the gap rather than build the gap of digital divide.
