What is Veridian Presentation Software?

Veridian Presentation Software is a web-based platform that enables libraries, archives, historical societies and cultural heritage organisations to publish, search and manage digitised collections online.

The software supports historical newspapers, books, journals, photographs, maps, audio and archival records, making collections searchable, discoverable and accessible to users worldwide. It can scale from specialist archives containing thousands of pages to national and institutional collections containing hundreds of millions.

Every collection and organisation is different. Each Veridian site can be configured around its audience, branding, content types, access requirements and long-term goals.

Whether supporting a specialist archive or a large national collection, the platform can evolve as new materials, functionality and user requirements are introduced..

What are the key features of Veridian Software?

Veridian provides the search, access and engagement tools required to make digitised historical materials easier to find, explore and use. Features can be configured according to the collection and its audience.
