Just discovered a free way to easily post PDFs online -- newspaper pages, documents, whatever. It's called ISSUU. You upload your files, organize them and then they give you a code to imbed in your Web site.
The Northern Star today published an investigative piece about expenses related to NIU's trip to the Independence Bowl. Our students used ISSUU to post scanned PDF files of all the expense reports obtained via the Illinois Freedom of Information Act. Readers then can page through them and it looks like a booklet.
ISSUU makes its money by including advertising on the side of the screen. Or, you can buy the pro edition and eliminate the ads.
So, who knows how long this will be around, but for now it's a good thing to add to your online toolbox.
