Books24x7, a firm offering online subscription access to digital texts aimed at business and technology professionals, has reached a nonexclusive agreement to add selected business titles from the Perseus Book Group to its library of technical reference works.
The agreement will add Perseus titles to Books24x7's BusinessPro library, an online selection of more than 600 titles aimed at managers and business professionals. Books24x7 offers online access to more than 2,300 reference works and reports. Subscribers to the site receive online access to a constantly updated, fully searchable, personalized selection of reference titles.
Carolyn Savarese, v-p of the Perseus Book Group, said that offering the publisher's titles through Books24x7 was a chance for Perseus to enhance "exposure for our authors and their books in the corporate market." The first titles added to BusinessPro will be Delivering Profitable Value and The Discipline of Market Leaders.
