Reference Universe is available for trial use by academic, public and special libraries. Trials are generally for 2-4 weeks, during which time you can view the database in its complete holdings view, without matching titles to your local holdings. Upon prior approval, Paratext will offer local holdings view for library trial use, which would require your library sending Paratext local holdings data.

Upon subscription or one-time payment for Reference Universe, Paratext will work with your library to establish the connection to your library's unique reference holdings, including up to three (3) annual uploads of local data to permit the local holdings view of your reference collection.
