Reading connects us

An e-reader is a device designed to read e-books (and for that purpose only). Specifically, an e-reader is characterized by:

▸ an e-ink screen: unlike tablets or smartphones, its screen is not backlit and mimics the look of paper, offering optimal reading comfort, even in direct sunlight. Also, e-ink does not strain the eyes.
▸ exceptional battery life: since it consumes very little energy (only when turning a page), its battery can last several weeks, or even a full month.
▸ large storage capacity: lightweight and compact, an e-reader lets you carry thousands of books in a single device.

In short, it’s the equivalent of a paper book, but with all the advantages of digital technology.

✅ Avid readers who want to read a lot, at a lower price, and anytime, anywhere.

✅ People on the go who want to take their library with them without worrying about space or weight.

✅ Young people and students who’ll be drawn to new releases at lower prices and take advantage of special offers.

✅ Seniors who’ll rediscover the joy of reading thanks to larger font sizes and audiobooks.

✅ Nonconformists who prefer a European e-reader that supports local bookstores over an Amazon e-reader.

Our comprehensive digital reading solution isn’t designed to take customers away from bookstores, but to be made available to them. As such, Vivlio partners with the largest bookstore chains in France (Cultura, Decitre, Furet du Nord, Leclerc, etc.) and in Europe (Standard Boekhandel, Casa del Libro, Sonae, etc.).

This is what sets the Vivlio model apart—it allows you to remain a customer of your local bookstore, whether you’re buying print or digital books.
