A public graphic library coupled to a WAN offers access to a database of
graphics, while another graphic library inside the firewall of an
enterprise network provides graphics to users in an enterprise.
Transferring graphics from the public graphic library to the enterprise
graphic library enables enterprise users to access content residing on
the public graphic library while the enterprise network is disconnected
or otherwise isolated from the WAN. A remote library director in a
drawing software program directs communication between a user computer
and either the public graphic library or the enterprise graphic library.
The configuration of this director specifies the library from which a
user accesses graphics.
