The editorial comments that covid-19 pandemic greatly affected libraries and, many of them, were caught by the back foot, that is, they had to close their doors and left their users helpless! Therefore, digitization and the creation of a digital library is not the future of libraries, it is the present. The library needs to digitize its old materials to save space, the ability to start a digital collections management project is becoming an essential skill for today's librarian. In addition, articles included in first issue of 2022 of the Ibero-American Journal of Information Science are commented.
