A Trusted Home for Digital Collections

The Palace Project helps libraries and consortia seamlessly transition from Baker & Taylor’s Boundless platform with hands-on migration support.

With Baker & Taylor’s announcement of the closure of its Boundless platform, many libraries are left searching for a new home for their digital collections. The Palace Project—a platform built by libraries, for libraries—offers a seamless path forward. Our team is actively processing Boundless migration requests in the order they are received and will work as quickly as possible to support each library’s transition.

With Palace, libraries and consortia can:

  • Migrate Boundless collections for free
  • Get dedicated support from the Palace team to guide your migration process
  • Preserve access to existing digital collections
  • Maintain patron access through a simple, easy-to-use app experience

The Palace team recommends that libraries request their Boundless collection inventory from Baker & Taylor as soon as possible, regardless of whether they plan to migrate to Palace or another vendor.

Migration Made Easy

Our team is actively assisting libraries affected by the Boundless shutdown. We’ll guide you through:

  • Collection migration: Transitioning your Boundless titles into Palace*
  • Patron continuity: Helping your users maintain access with minimal disruption
  • Training & support: Setup assistance, staff training, and onboarding resources
  • Content partnerships: We work directly with publishers and consortia to restore and expand your content offerings

*Please note: this is a best-effort process, and while we’ll do everything possible to ensure a seamless transition, some titles may not be eligible to migrate.

Have more questions about the migration process?
Feel free to drop-in to our informal office hours to ask any questions you have about the process, what’s involved, timelines, and more.
