Libraries and Notices
Last Updated on July 17, 2024 | 4 min read
Data Containers are combined to create Data Libraries, which are the final outputs from the NIVOMAX Builder. These libraries are encrypted and formatted to be compatible with NIVOMAX Viewer Applications and represent the digital products sold by ePubs Suppliers to customers. The library creation process is designed to be flexible, allowing publishers to incorporate data from various CDRs into a single library, thus supporting diverse content standards within a single Digital Product or Data Library.
Create Libraries
- Select the
Libraries icon from the top toolbar.
- Select the Libraries tab.
- Select the Create option from the Manage drop-down list.
- Enter the full name of the Library into the input field labeled Library Name. This is the long title given to the DC, e.g., Supersonic Jet 405A Maintenance Manuals.
- Allowed characters: alphanumeric characters, spaces, and dashes only.
- Enter the short code to be used for the Library into the input field labeled Short Code. This code will be used to identify the Library as a reference in the database, e.g., SSJ405A-MM.
- Allowed characters: alphanumeric characters and dashes only. The Builder will convert all inputs to uppercase.

Configure Library
When a library is created, it is an empty container without any data. Configuring a library is how publishers can add Data Containers to the Library. A Library can include any Data Container (DC) in the system, regardless of its parent CDR.

Libraries icon from the top toolbar.
- Select the Libraries tab.
- Select the Configure option from the Manage drop-down list.
- Select a Library from the drop down / input field labeled Library Name.

- Click the
icon within the DC bubble to remove it from the Library.
- Click the START button at the bottom of the form to begin applying the configuration changes. The process log output will appear in the Activity Window at the bottom of the screen. Click CLEAR MESSAGES to clear the log details.
Notices
Users may create multiple notifications for each Library. Notifications must be assigned to a library when created. The notification appearance setting and the unique notification to be included with the library are set by the publisher user when performing the Publish & Go Live tasks.
Creating and Managing Notices
- Select the
Libraries icon from the top toolbar.
- Select the Notices tab.
- Select a Library from the drop-down list labeled Library Name.
- Either select from or input a new notification name in the input field labeled Notice’s Name.

- To delete a Notice, click the DELETE button at the bottom of the form and click YES to confirm the deletion.
Note: Notices are distributed alongside the library within the Library Archive. A notification can only be modified during a library update, such as during a revision.
