Why Digitize your Yearbooks?
And Why With Us?

Preservation

– Yearbooks kept in school libraries or private collections are vulnerable to wear, lose or theft. Quality digitization of your yearbooks ensures the preservation of history.

Effective Marketing Tool to Engage Alumni

– Portray history and development of your school by allowing prospective parents and students, as well as potential donors to get a glimpse of the history and social climate of your institution.

Displaying the full collection of digitized yearbooks exclusively on your school’s online platforms, in a user-friendly format, is a sure way to attract and increase alumni traffic. Alumni will be excited and engaged by rekindling memories, as many no longer possess their yearbooks and would be eager to have access to them again.

You may choose to limit access by requiring a sign-up process to capture updated contact information. You can also require a membership fee, or an optional donation.

Searchability

– Text-recognition technology enables yearbooks to be fully searchable for any keyword such as names or associated activities appearing in yearbooks.

Affordability

– We charge a low flat fee of $34 per yearbook for schools with larger collections (for standard size yearbooks; surcharges may apply for larger volumes), and $40 per book for smaller orders under 10 books. Our innovative, manual or robotic technology for intact and high-quality book scanning allows us to offer affordable pricing.

Exclusivity

– Unlike other services, we don’t keep the rights to a digital copy of your scans. The digital yearbooks remain in your domain exclusively. Some schools display them publicly on their site, others limit access to alumni – the choice is yours.

Gentle Handling

– Appreciating and respecting your yearbook’s intrinsic value is fundamental. Our white-glove process assures protection of your priceless yearbooks and return them intact.

Flipbook Conversions

–  We can also convert your yearbooks to user-friendly, secure online flipbooks, in a virtual customized bookcase that can be embedded on your own website. Each book will be fully searchable, with ability to zoom as well. View some samples here.

Quality Images

– Since yearbooks are comprised of lots of detailed images, quality of image capture is essential. We scan in full color and high resolution, which also impacts the accuracy of the searchability feature.

Reprints

– Yearbooks are often out of print. High-quality digital fifes can be utilized, via latest Print-on-Demand technology, to easily reproduce, and sell if desired, single hard copy reprints.

Coverage Area

– We’re located near NYC but service the entire USA and beyond via secure shipping services. If your school is in the NY-tristate area, we would be happy to pick them up.

Additional Services

– We can also provide images of all senior headshots cropped from the yearbook page and labeled with the student’s name and year graduated. These are organized by each year and is very useful for reunion committees and alumni projects.

No Minimum

– We accept orders of just single yearbooks as well, using this form.

Turn-time

– We understand the inconvenience of temporarily not having your yearbooks on-site, so we do our best to complete and return most orders within 2-3 weeks.
