One effort underway is to convert printed books into the Court held digital books / e-book. However, digital books can only be read inside of library. So it may not be reproduced or duplicated without charge. "Except for a few books whose copyright has been given to the Court," says Sidhartha.

In addition, the collection of books that have been digitized, the plan also will be connected to a supporting device (gadget) owned by the judges in the Constitutional Court. "Being such a search engine," says Sidhartha.
