Best in class digital editions and archives

Mobile-optimised reading and a searchable web-library built into your site or member area
Talk to us >

For your first edition... or your thousandth

Our ‘white-label’ web library solution allows publishers to offer digital editions and web archives on their own website, either behind a paywall or free to access.

All PDF pages are indexed to provide deep archive search and the solution is flexible depending on your requirements - templated layouts, embedded and custom options are available.

Web libraries can house as many (or as few) editions as the publisher wants to provide - with some going back over 100 years and others starting with their most recent issues.

Publishers typically have 'replica' editions for older content and take advantage of our mobile optimised editions for newer issues.

FAQs

Who are web libraries for?

The web library solution is suitable for any magazine or newspaper publisher, B2C and B2B, free or paid.

Typically paid-for B2B and B2C titles use our web libraries to include an 'all-access' perk in their membership or subscription offerings, granting access to the digital library within a members' area of their site.

Free titles typically choose the web library solution to house their editions in a branded environment, and take advantage of the chance to take their digital edition to the next level with mobile-optimised reading and/or multimedia.

Can this be integrated with my paywall or membership offering?

Absolutely. Web libraries can sit securely behind your paywall, in your member area, or be free to access.

Will this improve the reading experience of our publication on mobile?

Our mobile optimised reading experience can take your PDF and convert it into beautiful, scrollable articles perfect for reading (or listening to!) on the go. Learn more about Mobile Optimised Reading here

Is this only suitable for archive content?

Not at all. Whilst they are great for deep archives, their primary function is to deliver your digital edition; they are the perfect solution whether you are offering 1 or 100 year's worth of content.

Can I just use your digital edition reader if I don't need a web library?

If you'd just like to use the reader, for example you create your own edition library / posts, that's no problem at all. You'll still be able to enjoy the benefits of our HTML5 web-reader on any device, such as high definition page rendering, multimedia capability, mobile optimised version and article audio.

How long does it take to go live?

From the point we have everything required e.g. editions, assets etc. we expect you to be live within 2 weeks.
