Manga is an incredibly diverse medium and there are a lot of opportunities to get lost in the weeds as you begin, or refine, your collection development strategy to incorporate it. Worse, you might deprive your readers of serendipitous discovery by only focusing on the most popular titles they already know about.
2021 was a great year for Comics Plus, which is now available exclusively through 1,600+ schools and libraries in 41 states and Puerto Rico, as well as several foreign countries, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, UK, and Vietnam.
We periodically review and occasionally update age ratings on specific titles and series to ensure they align with our age-appropriate guidelines, and those guidelines are regularly reviewed to ensure they align with our dual mission to to provide unlimited access to a broad range of content while enabling our customers to confidently offer Comics Plus to their students and patrons.
Juni Ba (Djeliya), Svetlana Chmakova (Awkward, The Weirn Books, Dramacon), and Joseph Illidge (MPLS Sound, Heavy Metal), share insights on their work, the unique power of comics and manga, and the important role libraries play in developing and nurturing new readers.
We curate high-interest, immersive digital content that helps schools and libraries expand and diversify their collections—without breaking their materials budgets.
Give your readers unlimited, simultaneous access to a diverse collection of digital comics, graphic novels, and manga from dozens of library-friendly publishers.
