Third Iron announced the debut of Brow-Zine technology at the 2011 ALA Annual New Product News Conference. Brow-Zine takes the articles from your journal databases and delivers them as complete journals, allowing patrons to browse and read their favorite periodicals on their iPads. Databases are designed for researchers rather than readers, so much of their content is missed by patrons who are not actively researching. BrowZine delivers their content in an accessible, browsable format. The app is free to patrons while the library subscribes to the BrowZine service. It is customized for the library’s databases and both video tutorials and complementary training are available to staff and patrons. BrowZine currently supports EBSCOhost and additional database providers are coming soon.
