Browse Inside: HarperCollins Publishers to let consumers sample books before purchase

HarperCollins Publishers has launched a new web service, which would enable their customers to sample book content online before purchasing them.

The company calls this new service of theirs ‘Browse Inside’ and it would enable the prospective buyers of their books to read a couple of pages of the books they are interested in acquiring.

Some of the early titles available on this service for preview include books from Michael Crichton, Paulo Coelho and Isabel Allende.

The News Corp. owned entity plans to add 10 more books within a year’s time.

Jane Friedman, president of HarperCollins Publishers Worldwide spoke on this project: “We want to reach consumers wherever they are, however they wish to experience our authors and their words.”
