Imagine a place where anyone—from professional publishers and authors to students, scientists, and artists—can sell written works to a potential buying audience of tens of millions.
Welcome to the Scribd Store, the world's first online document store that makes selling easy and buying fun. In the Scribd Store, sellers benefit from:
In the Scribd Store, sellers can manage their digital rights seamlessly—choosing whether to make their works "View on Scribd only," "Download PDF," "Read with Adobe Digital Editions with DRM." The latter uses the free Adobe Digital Editions technology for reading and managing copy-protected content whether online or offline.
Scribd Store sellers also benefit from Scribd's existing Copyright Management System (CMS), an industry-leading technology that helps prevent the upload of unauthorized works onto the site. Every Scribd Store work is added to the CMS automatically.
At Scribd, we believe in convenience and hope to make the Scribd Store available anytime you want it, on any device or computer you own. Scribd Store works are PDF and ePub compatible, which means they will soon be readable on our upcoming Scribd Apple® iPhone® application and many other devices.
