Axis 360 Browser Based Reader

Available December 5th

By Russell, Renee

December 04, 2016

 
The browser based reader will be launching on  Monday, December 5th for eRead Illinois libraries! eRead Illinois libraries will be among the first libraries in the country to have access to this new Axis 360 feature.

The browser based reader will allow patrons to access e-books through their browser without having to download any additional apps or software. It is compatible with Chromebooks through the Chrome browser, and through Mac and Windows based computers through the Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer browsers.

A How-To Guide handout and an overview video have been posted to the eRead Illinois website and can also be accessed via the links below.

Libraries will not need to do anything to turn on the browser based reader. Baker & Taylor will launch it on Monday, December 5th and the Read Now in Browser button will automatically appear on the Magic Wall.

Thank you to all our members, especially our school members, for your continued advocacy and input. Your voices highlighted the need for a browser based reader and helped make this development happen. This is resource sharing in action!

We would love to hear what your staff and patrons think of the new browser based reader once it releases Monday. Please email any questions or feedback to ereadillinois@railslibraries.info.
