Document Library Pro

Hi – For premium plugins, the Commons policy is to have your organization pay for a single use license, and then activate the plugin on your site only. If you want to go this route, let us know.

You might also consider connecting your site to a group. Groups have a library feature that I think is similar to your needs. See https://help.commons.gc.cuny.edu/group-library/

If you need help connecting your site to a group, first create the group, and follow these instructions: https://help.commons.gc.cuny.edu/how-to-create-a-group-site/

I will put in a request for Barn2

Hi – Can you clarify which ebook reader plugin you want? Is it also a premium plugin? Thanks.

Hi Van,

You might also be interested in checking out CUNY’s installation of
Manifold — http://cuny.manifoldapp.org — which offers a responsive
web-based reader for ebooks and many options for course use, including
public or private reading groups for annotation. If you or others would
like a demo to see how CUNY students and faculty are using it in their
courses, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Best,

Matt

Hi Van,

The only way Manifold texts could be embedded would be through an iFrame. While it is technically possible to set that up, I think it would not lead to a good user experience given the importance of responsive design in Manifold and the fact that several features, like annotation and reading groups, require log in. But it is something we could potentially look in to if there is interest.

Best,

Matt
