The purpose of this study is to identify and determine standards in Iranian digital libraries that are most widely used. The research method is descriptive-analytic. The data gathering tool was a researcher-made questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of three parts: storage standards, meta data standards, and interoperability protocols. The questionnaire was presented to the research community and they were asked to report on the use of any of the standards in their digital library. The results indicated that the most commonly supported text files were PDF (with 95% usage), JPEG (with 63.7% usage), MP3 (with 63.7% usage) and AVI (with 45.5% usage) in storage standards part. In the area of organization, the most commonly used standards were MARC (with 77.3% usage) and Dublin Core (with 59.1% usage) in metadata standards part. The METS metadata standard with 22.7% of the usage was in the next place. In the meantime, the standard for the management of the PREMIS (with 10% usage) was the lowest usage. In the information search/retrieval standard section Z39.50 with 77.3% usage was considered the most frequently used standard, and OAI (with 22.7% usage) and OAI-PMH (with 9.1% usage) were regarded as the least frequently used standards, respectively. Also, the results of the study showed that 95 percent of Iranian digital libraries use in-house software and software support from each standard has an effective role in using it by the library. The results of the Chi-square test also revealed that university libraries use standards more than other types of libraries.
