Books24x7® On Demand Platform
While Books24x7® collections include the best titles that leading industry publishers, senior executives, business thought leaders and analysts have to offer, authoritative content is not enough — your work force needs to be able to find exactly the right information they need, when they need it. The Books24x7 On Demand Platform makes this information instantly available to your work force — allowing them to put this knowledge to work for your organization.
Books24x7 can be embedded into the work life of organizations, enhancing productivity and professional development while minimizing downtime and maximizing performance. The Books24x7 on Demand Platforms provides a variety of corporate managed customization, personalization and implementation options for easy accessibility in a wide range of business environments.
Mobile accessible content
Optimized for viewing on Internet-enabled cell phones and other mobile devices, Books24x7 On The Go™ enables users to access the Books24x7 Web site while on the move. With this mobile-accessible site, users have access to the full content and functionality of the Books24x7 On Demand Platform, including powerful search and browse capabilities, complete site and content navigation, and personal and corporate folders. Users can bookmark, add notes and add titles to their existing personal folders, enabling them to organize particularly useful and relevant content.
Portable content lets users take the reading with them
Books24x7 gives users the ability to access content while away from their computers. By being able to take the reading with them, users can take greater advantage of offline times such as their daily commute, business travel, or other “offline” moments.
Chapters to Go™, a premium content feature, enables users to download chapter PDF files, including personal bookmarks and notes, for offline reading. Chapters to Go is an ideal option for users who repeatedly return to a specific chapter for information. Chapters to Go is an optional premium feature offered on a collection-by-collection basis or across your entire collection portfolio. Select collections also offer downloads as part of the subscription cost. These downloads options include flash files for video, MP3 for audio, Kindle-ready mobi and PDF for print.
Integrating into the daily work flow
Today’s work force is no longer confined to corporate offices — it is distributed globally, working virtually and constantly on the move. To accommodate this new workplace, Books24x7 offers multiple options to ensure that access to our On Demand Platform is there when it’s needed.
Proven user-friendly interface
The Books24x7 On Demand Platform employs a clear and easy-to-navigate user interface. The home page offers customization options and includes everything needed to find and organize content. While our powerful search engine delivers precise results, our expertly-designed topic and title classification scheme also offers easy access to subject content. In just a few clicks, pertinent information is delivered to meet user needs.
inGenius — Unlocking your organization’s inner genius

User Features
Quick retrieval of relevant content
Our search engine searches the entire repository of content to retrieve not only the most pertinent titles, but also links to the most relevant sections. Sophisticated search algorithms understand the structure of the content, ensuring the relevancy of search results. Together with advanced search features, users are guided to titles that are most connected to their search, eliminating time spent sorting through false hits.
Personal folders organize titles of interest
Personal folders allow users to organize titles of interest by topic, project or other preference for quick retrieval.
Bookmarks and notes for fast access
Users can add bookmarks to track their location or to return to sections that they consult repeatedly. Notes allow users to add comments for personal reference.
Recommendations create user community
This dynamic feature allows users to make more informed decisions about the most valued titles by leveraging the recommendations of peers and the overall Books24x7 community.
Citations ensure accuracy
A citations link provided for every title allows users to obtain an accurate reference when citing content from Books24x7.
Transferable equations and tables
Unique features enable users to easily transfer complex data found in Books24x7 titles to desktop applications for data analysis. This saves users time and avoids mistakes as a result of spelling and data entry errors. LiveEquations® utilizes MathML, a standard mathematical expression markup language that describes equations. This allows users to transfer equations, commonly found in technical books, into any of several compliant software packages, including Mathematica® and Microsoft® Word 2007, for data manipulation. With LiveTables™ users can download any table into the most commonly used spreadsheet applications for personal manipulation and use. Data can be sorted, formatted, charted or otherwise managed by the features in their spreadsheet program.
New Title Notices keep users informed of new content
Since new content is added weekly, email notices or RSS feeds can help users stay up to date on the latest additions. These announcements can be tailored to include only content that is of specific interest
