carácter de real y virtual
presence in the actual and virtual worlds


Explanation:
The aim is to reach people who do as well as people who do not use the internet. Thus, people who use the internet are considered virtual visitors and those who do not use the internet would use the actual facility in real life. Actual vs. Virtual or Physical vs. Virtual or Real vs. Virtual.

Example sentence(s):
  • Our library now as a virtual presence on the Internet through a website as well as the actual city library.
