ISIS Developer Toolkit for Publishers & Societies
ebrary’s licensed software toolkit, ISIS, is ideal for publishers and societies who need a robust and scalable content distribution system that runs on their own servers for complete control and ownership. ISIS is the same technology that ebrary has used for more than a decade to aggregate and distribute more than 170,000 e-books from over 350 publishers to thousands of libraries, corporations and government, and other institutions throughout the world.
With ISIS, publishers can submit and distribute any digital content such as e-books, journals, reports, maps, anything in PDF. ISIS rapidly compiles documents into a fully searchable and flexible system, with document viewing through ebrary Readers, overcoming the barriers typically associated with cumbersome PDF files located in various places throughout the institution.
