Some authors consider the implications of the integration of VLEs and digital libraries in the teaching and learning processes.

Brophy et al. (2003) also believe that integration of digital libraries and VLEs will have great benefits especially to distance students, who greatly use VLEs as well as rely heavily on fast delivery of library services. This may have an impact on a more use of digital libraries as well once they are integrated with VLEs (Virkus et al, 2009)..
