Are there specific PHP libraries or functions that can be used to access files from a network directory?

To access files from a network directory in PHP, you can use the `opendir()`, `readdir()`, and `closedir()` functions to open, read, and close the directory, respectively. You can also use functions like `file_get_contents()` or `fopen()` to read the contents of specific files within the directory. 

$directory = "//network_path/directory/";
$dir_handle = opendir($directory);

if ($dir_handle) {
    while (($file = readdir($dir_handle)) !== false) {
        if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
            // Process the file
            echo "File: $file\n";
        }
    }
    closedir($dir_handle);
} else {
    echo "Unable to open directory.";
}
