Online yearbooks offer several options. First you can provide a link for a digital version of a hardcopy yearbook. Instead of buying a hardcover book students can purchase a link that allows them to see video clips of clubs, activities and interviews as well as photos.
Companies that specialize in producing yearbooks online can be a great timesaver to yearbook committees. The school can buy the software or subscribe to the online program that lets students input data; select a design for the page from hundreds provided and the data is instantly inserted into the design.
Yearbooks can be produced and published online. Subscribers to the company’s website can view the yearbooks of one school through several years or view the yearbooks of several schools for a specific year-depending on the version they purchase. This is a huge timesaver to schools, police departments, businesses or individuals who are doing an inter or intra school search.
Most yearbook companies now offer their schools software or online links to prepared layouts, colors, textures, fonts and graphics. Students simply select the page design they wish, select options from the pull-down menu and insert their own text and photos. Pages are attractive and very polished. Since this can be done and emailed to the company in minutes it is a huge time saver to already busy volunteers.
Students submit pages electronically in most yearbook construction now. The company provides many choices for themes, fonts, graphics, borders and layouts. When the pages are received the students on the yearbook committee also have the pages in a file. Mailing costs and time wasted in sending them through the mail are eliminated..
