About

The Universal Viewer has an active and diverse community of users, from national libraries and museums to one-person projects. It is made for simple, consistent presentation and sharing of digitised books, artworks, archives, audio, video and 3D objects.

Sign up here to join us online on the 17th and 18th of November to discuss the Universal Viewer's history, recent improvements, and how you can help shape its future development.

UVCON 2026 is hosted online by the Universal Viewer Steering Group, a community led initiative that supports open, sustainable development of the Universal Viewer and related digital projects.

UCVON and the Universal Viewer community are sustained through shared effort and open support. If you would like to help us ensure ongoing development of the Universal Viewer you can contribute via the Open Collective. Your contribution helps fund development, community events and training that keeps the viewer open and available to all.
