Nielsen BookData research shows that publishers who invest in good and comprehensive metadata will see improved sales. The benefits of supplying Nielsen BookData with rich content is self-evident and has been validated by our Metadata Report: The Importance of Medata for Discoverability and Sales. The more metadata elements your title record contains the more likely it is to sell.

Create 'Look Inside' content

Create a Book2Look biblet for your book to promote it digitally

Nielsen Book2Look biblets offer a quick and easy way for you to maximise the impact of your digital marketing strategy. Once biblets have been created for your titles you will have complete control over the continuous editing and sharing capabilities of each biblet.

Book biblets can be shared on social media platforms, blogs, online review articles, distributed via media channels and can be used to enhance additional interactive content to connect with readers.

Biblets can be fully integrated as a dynamic ‘look inside’ solution that can be easily embedded on your website. Use your biblets to:

  • Share on social media platforms including, Facebook, X, LinkedIn & Pinterest
  • Easily add video and audio content from YouTube, Vimeo and SoundCloud
  • Add in direct shop links to your preferred retailers or your own website
  • Customise and send to bloggers as well as participating booksellers
  • Receive in-depth analytics and create reports on how your biblets are being viewed and shared across the web

The biblets you create are yours to share and allow readers to discover your books. Nielsen BookData will automatically embed your biblets in our bibliographic database for additional exposure and Book2Look biblets now feature on the Bookshop.org website.
