Simplify your digital lift, meet market demand, and scale customer needs

For Content Creators

Effective management is essential for the success of your professional learning program. The ease of access anytime, anywhere, online, offline, with any device offers a boost to the learning experience, but it can also lead to new security concerns. Our digital content solutions range from creating interactive, accessible ePUB content, delivering PDFs and publisher-hosted courseware/labs to protecting that content with VitalSource’s best-in-class digital rights management (DRM). DRM places reasonable restrictions and permissions for online use and downloading, while maintaining control over license terms.

Powering Digital Experiences

VitalSource is the biggest network you’ve never seen, and we power content delivery from providers to learners and professionals. This unmatched global delivery network allows you to reach learners at scale, and provide a convenient, reliable digital experience.
