Monocle - Books in the browser

Monocle is digital books for everyone. You can use it on any device with a modern web browser: the iPhone and iPod Touch, the iPad, Android, soon a Blackberry, and of course a Mac, Windows PC or Linux-powered device using Firefox, Safari or Chrome.

Monocle is software zero. There’s nothing to install.

Monocle for your website

Monocle is drop-in. You can embed a ‘book’ on any webpage with two lines of code — one to include the library, one to initialize the reader. Monocle is approximately 25kb and has no dependencies on external JavaScript libraries.

Monocle is as you like it. Out of the box it simply lets you turn the pages. It’s lean. But you can add controls — page numbers, tables of contents, scrubbers (to jump to a different place in the book), font-size magnifiers — or you can code your own. The reader is rendered in CSS3; it can be made to look like pretty much anything.
