PDF Hosting at Scribd.com

A lot of LBCC Faculty and Staff are getting into Google Apps for Education to host documents, spreadsheets and presentations, but what about PDFs? Google Docs allows you to share PDFs with other users, but currently doesn't allow you to deploy them as a URL like you can with other document types.

Enter Scribd.com. Although it's not the only hosting solution for PDF documents, it's one of the best we have seen, offering the ability to view your documents in three unique views: List, Book, and Slide mode. You can also embed a PDF to render directly in a web page. See the example below, making sure to explore the view modes via the "iPaper" drop-down menu.

Try Scribd; we think you'll like it!
