This chapter discusses the development of the digital platform called Culturetheque, launched on 27 May 2010 by the Institut français du Royaume-Uni. Culturetheque offers French culture at home, on the Internet, for free, in an accessible and user-friendly way: books to read online, films to watch online, podcasts of conferences and live retransmissions.
