Le Devoir: Omerlo Supports the Digital Evolution of an Iconic Quebec Newspaper

Le Devoir, one of Quebec's leading news media, has carried on its legacy of independence since its founding in 1910 by Henri Bourassa. Initially conceived as a combat newspaper, it has evolved into a newsmagazine, while remaining true to its founder's vision: to remain independent and free of outside affiliations - a promise kept for over a century.

Committed to defending the ideas and causes that promote Quebec's political, economic, cultural and social progress, Le Devoir has adapted to the new era of information consumption. The transition to digital editions illustrates this capacity to adapt, offering readers an enriched experience that transcends the simple reading of content.

These digital editions, inspired by the tried-and-tested magazine-reading model, allow readers to become totally immersed, inviting them to explore all the content with the same familiarity as a book, with each page dedicated to a specific topic. This innovative approach promotes an immersive and engaging reading experience. The sectional structure of the digital editions facilitates navigation and the discovery of new content, ensuring that readers can fully explore topics of current interest and importance. The flexible distribution of these editions, whether free, sold individually or via subscription, together with the strategic integration of advertising, ensures a preserved reading experience.

The integration of the Omerlo platform into Le Devoir's digital operations represents a significant step forward, simplifying the work of journalists by avoiding redundant tasks between the print and digital editions. This synergy between media enables Le Devoir to continue innovating in the way it presents information, while respecting its commitment to quality, independent reporting.
