Yen Press revealed a distribution agreement with LibraryPass to bring a selection of their digital catalog to libraries and schools through Comics Plus. Through the app, readers can access digital comics, graphic novels, and manga through their school or library with unlimited simultaneous access for online and offline reading.

“With an amazing service such as Comics Plus and a leadership team passionate about serving libraries, we are thrilled to team up with LibraryPass,” said Mark de Vera, Yen Press’ Sales & Marketing Director. “For myself and others, libraries have been invaluable in developing a love for manga and graphic novels, which of course leads to a lifelong love of reading. We look forward to helping further the tradition of libraries helping people learn the joys of reading through the amazing Comics Plus service that makes the wonderful stories we publish accessible to so many.”

Yen Press has confirmed that more than 100 titles will be added to Comics Plus for readers of all ages.

“We’re thrilled to welcome a great selection of Yen Press’ titles to our growing collection,” said Moni Barrette, LibraryPass’ Director of Collection Development & Publisher Relations, and in-house librarian. “These titles will further strengthen our wonderful manga offerings, and I know our customers will love sharing them with their readers.”

The Comics Plus app can be accessed through a browser but will require a school or library login.
