TOP CONTENT FROM HIGHEST-QUALITY PUBLISHERS

COST EFFECTIVE, DISTRICT/SCHOOL MODEL

We work directly with publishers you know and trust to offer districts and schools the best prices on ebooks, audiobooks and streaming video, and you only pay for the titles you want. Most digital titles never need to be replaced, and having an organization-wide content access platform reduces the number of copies that have to be purchased. Contact us for a free needs analysis.
