Turning the Pages™ 2.0 is a toolkit that allows libraries and museums to put entire collections of books online in a compelling 3D environment, with a suite of useful tools to aid understanding. Developed with the British Library, it is available as a service for institutions and private collectors around the world. It's a true next-generation web application, taking advantage of the latest web technologies.

Now cross-platform
TTP 2.0 now runs on the Mac platform. Using the same technical back-end, TTP can now run on OSX, Linux and Windows 2000. The content management system also generates an accessible version. We are committed to allowing you to reach as large an audience as possible, while retaining all the usability that visitors want.

Kiosks and Online
Kiosk in use TTP 2.0 can be configured to work online in a browser or offline, for example in touchscreen kiosks, using the same scans. As well as a cost-effective solution, this allows libraries and museums to gain a visitor attraction in-house, whilst at the same time using the reach of the internet to provide maximum exposure to collections.

Customised
Codex Arundel in TTP 2.0 Turning the Pages can run online or offline, be hosted by us, or by your IT department. We can customise the interface and add new features to get you the Turning the Pages you want.
