─ THE KATBOOK FORMAT
Not a PDF.
A reading environment.

Katbook is the proprietary reading layer that turns a medical textbook into a working clinical companion. Every title in the library is delivered in this format — ready for cohorts of any size, on any device the institution provisions.

Linked everything

Cross-references between chapters, MCQ banks, anatomical atlases and journal citations resolve in a single click — no tab juggling.

Annotations that persist

Highlights, margin notes and shared bookmarks travel with the student across devices and across academic years.

Faculty overlays

Department heads can publish reading guides, supplementary notes and exam-pattern annotations directly on top of any chapter.

Engagement analytics

Librarians receive cohort-level reading patterns, weak-area heatmaps and licence-utilisation reports each term.

─ THE CATALOGUE
Curated across
A nineteen subjects of medicine.

From Phase I foundations to advanced clinical specialties, the Kmed Library catalogue is carefully curated and continuously refined by practising faculty and subject experts. Each title is selected not just for coverage, but for clarity, exam relevance, and real-world clinical application.

The collection spans core textbooks, concise revision guides, MCQ banks, and integrated reference material—ensuring students and institutions have a unified academic ecosystem instead of fragmented resources. Cross-referenced content allows seamless navigation between foundational concepts and their clinical correlations, improving both understanding and retention.

New titles and updated editions are incorporated into the institutional licence every term, aligned with evolving curricula and examination patterns. Institutions benefit from a continuously growing library without the burden of per-seat upgrade fees, while students gain uninterrupted access to the latest academic resources throughout their learning journey.

─ COMMON QUERIES
Questions, answered.
No. Kmed Library is a strictly B2B product offered exclusively through institutional licences. Individual students access the library through the access code provided by their institution. This model ensures uniform access for every student in a cohort and supports compliant procurement at the institutional level.
Licences are quoted per cohort (annual student intake) rather than per title or per seat. The full catalogue is included in every plan — there are no add-on fees as new titles are added during the licence term.
Yes. The Faculty Overlay tool allows department heads and approved faculty to publish reading guides, MCQ commentary, and supplementary notes that appear inline within the Katbook reading environment for their cohort.
The Katbook reader supports time-limited offline access on tablets and laptops. Students download chapters before leaving campus and re-sync when reconnected. Annotations made offline are merged on next login.
Yes. Kmed Library supports SSO via SAML and LTI 1.3 launch from Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard and most ILMS platforms. IP-based campus authentication is also available for libraries that prefer it.
New titles are added each term as faculty review boards approve them. All new editions of titles already in your licence are pushed to your shelf automatically — no contract renegotiation required.
