LibraryPass welcomes Apples & Honey Press, Exhibit A, Fanbase Press, Fun Academy Inc., Heir Apparent Publishing, Immedium, Kingstone Media, and UMC Ediciones to Comics Plus, offering schools and libraries unlimited simultaneous access to a diverse selection of comics, graphic novels, and manga.
Adding popular graphic novels and manga to your school library’s collection is a surefire way to drive circulation—but it can also bring scrutiny from parents and administrators who don’t believe they’re appropriate for young readers. Ensuring your collection development plan is up-to-date with your administration’s goals and objectives is a critical first step to garnering support for your efforts.
While our collections are organized for age-appropriate reading levels, some libraries have also requested the ability to curate their individual collections—to easily identify and weed out titles they feel aren’t a good fit for their readers. That ability is now available to ComicsPlus admins through the User Admin Portal.
LibraryPass and bibliotheca announce partnership to make ComicsPlus available to public libraries; San Diego Public Library leverages unlimited, simultaneous access model to support One Book One San Diego program.
Join us on Tuesday, November 24th at 7pm ET (4pm PT) for this free webinar where our panel of distinguished educators and librarians—Karen Gavigan, Christina Taylor, Kat Kan, Esther Keller—will discuss how the comics medium works and why it has become so popular, particularly amongst younger readers. They’ll answer the questions librarians and educators frequently have about comics, as well as those asked by parents who don’t believe comics count as “real” reading.
LibraryPass, Inc. is pleased to announce three recent additions to its full-time staff to support accelerating growth for ComicsPlus in the K-12 and public library markets. The team’s newest members include Guy LeCharles Gonzalez, Chief Content Officer; Raquel Ryan, MSEd, Chief Experience Officer; and Moni Barrette, MLIS, Director, Collection Development & Publisher Relations.
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, manga, and picture books from dozens of library-friendly publishers.
