Digital Library Solutions for Multi-Academy Trusts
Give every student in your Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) equal access to thousands of eBooks and Audiobooks, all under one cost-effective subscription that’s simple to roll out and easy to manage.
Over 4,000 leading publishers providing high quality content:
One platform for your entire trust
ePlatform gives every school in your MAT the same access to eBooks and Audiobooks. Students across the trust benefit from a consistent digital library on the devices they already use. Leaders gain visibility and control across all sites with one dashboard. You manage one contract, one administration process, and tap into unified support. This approach cuts complexity and delivers equity across your trust.
With thousands of titles available, including curriculum-aligned texts, phonics readers, and wellbeing content, every school in the trust can support its students with the same high-quality resources. This shared foundation strengthens literacy initiatives across schools and ensures no student is left behind when it comes to digital reading.
Pool your power. Save as a trust.
MATs with 10 or more schools receive over 50% off menu pricing. Annual eBook subscriptions reduce from £595 to £250 per year, and Audiobooks from £845 to £275 per year. For smaller trusts, we tailor discounts on a case-by-case basis so every group can benefit from shared value. Either way, your trust manages one contract and one invoice, cutting administration while maximising your return.
These savings sit alongside the value of shared collections, which open access to a far larger library than most schools could fund alone. By pooling resources, your trust equips every student with bestseller eBooks, Audiobooks and inclusive titles while keeping costs under control.
Trust-wide Demonstrations
Book a shared demo for all schools in your MAT. We handle setup and coordinate the session online. The session runs for about one hour. We walk you through key features that matter to school leaders and librarians. You’ll see how ePlatform supports literacy, improves accessibility, and provides usage insights across all sites. It shows you the real impact of a trust-wide system in action.
Demos highlight how ePlatform integrates with devices you already have, making it simple to launch without new hardware or complex setup. You’ll see tools for admins, reporting dashboards, and reading support features designed for students of all abilities. It’s the clearest way to understand how a single platform works across your trust.

Frequently Asked Questions
Significant savings for MATs of all sizes
Multi-Academy Trusts with 10 or more schools receive more than 50% off standard pricing, making it far more cost-effective than individual subscriptions. For trusts with fewer than 10 schools, we work on a case-by-case basis to ensure strong value.
This means every trust can benefit from a fair and affordable solution, no matter its size. By pooling purchasing power under one contract, MATs reduce administration, simplify invoicing, and ensure all schools enjoy equal access to the same resources.
These savings are particularly impactful when combined with shared collections, which open access to a much larger library than most schools could afford on their own. The shared collection model delivers both immediate cost reduction and long-term sustainability for digital reading across a trust.
Tailored discounts for trusts with fewer schools
For Multi-Academy Trusts with fewer than 10 schools, we offer case-by-case pricing to ensure strong value. This means smaller trusts can still reduce costs while providing students with access to the same eBooks and Audiobooks. By pooling purchasing power, every MAT gains efficiency, affordability, and a consistent reading experience for their students across all schools.
Easy access on existing devices
Students and staff log in using the devices they already have, including computers, Chromebooks, tablets, and phones. Access is available through any web browser or the ePlatform app, and Single Sign-On (SSO) is supported where schools use systems such as Accessit, Libresoft, or MyLogin by Wonde.
Students can borrow eBooks and Audiobooks anytime, anywhere, giving them 24/7 access both at home and in school. This flexibility supports independent reading and ensures all learners can engage equally.
For leaders and teachers, ePlatform provides reporting dashboards that track borrowing, reading engagement, and usage patterns across each school in the trust. This makes it simple to monitor impact and plan literacy strategies based on real data.
Trust-wide demonstrations available
We offer shared demonstrations for MATs, coordinated online. Sessions last about an hour and showcase key features, reporting tools, and student-facing benefits. Demonstrations are tailored for trust leaders, librarians, and teachers, giving you a clear picture of how ePlatform works across multiple schools. It’s the best way to see the impact of our digital library platform in action before making a decision.
Seamless setup and dedicated assistance every step of the way
ePlatform is quick to implement, even across large trusts. Our dedicated support team assists with onboarding for each school, ensuring staff and students can start reading from day one without technical headaches.
Because the platform runs on devices schools already use, there’s no need for new hardware or complex IT setup. Integration with existing systems makes the process smooth, with Single Sign-On available for easier access.
Leaders also gain a trust-wide dashboard, making it easy to oversee activity across schools. Combined with training resources and promotional materials, this ensures your MAT launches successfully and continues to build engagement long term.
Built to meet UK data protection standards
ePlatform is fully GDPR compliant and designed with student safety in mind. Data is processed securely, with strict privacy safeguards built into every stage.
We work with schools and trusts to ensure compliance requirements are met, and authentication links directly with existing school systems. This means schools retain control of user data while meeting the standards expected of UK education providers.
