ICC Macmillan is approved vendor for VitalBook (VBK) format

VitalSource Technologies has chosen ICC Macmillan as an approved vendor to provide conversion services in the VitalBook (VBK) format. VBK is an exciting new digital format aimed at the higher education and STM markets. Designed originally for medical, dentistry, and nursing textbooks, the VBK is also applicable for trade materials. In addition, the VBK:
  • Provides full graphic support for a more "book-like" look
  • Downloads large files quickly
  • Allows readers to highlight, produce, and share marginal notes to the text
  • Enables readers to cut and past text, including any associated bibliographic data
  • Allows content to be customized and reaggregated
  • Is fully NIMAS compliant for users with disabilities
  • Allows cross-library and in-book searching of references, as well as the content in graphics and charts
  • Is fully portable, so readers don't have to be tethered to the Internet to use it
  • Links directly to Web page references when online
  • Digital Rights Management (DRM) that protects publishers without frustrating them.

Please contact your sales account manager for further information about utilizing the VBK for your publishing needs. If you do not have a current account manager at ICC Macmillan, contact
