EDRLab is a network of publishers, ebook and audiobook distributors, booksellers, libraries and developers of reading applications. Members use and shape Readium, Readium LCP and Thorium Reader, follow the evolution of EPUB through EDRLab's W3C membership, and meet at the Digital Publishing Summit.

Network in numbers
The network covers the whole book chain, from content producers to libraries and reading applications.
