Casalini Libri was established in 1958 with the twin purpose of advancing the profile of Italian culture and learning across the globe and providing a first-class bibliographic search and supply service for academic libraries.

Still a family-run business, we have remained faithful to our original objectives, developing our services to assist publishers and institutions in facing the challenges of scholarly publishing in a changing market.

We created our innovative Digital Division in 2000 to explore the possibilities and challenges of electronic publishing.

An evolution of our existing digital library project, the Torrossa platform was launched in 2011 to extend our mission for the current market. Torrossa provides visibility to Southern European publishers and supports them in meeting the demands of digital publishing.

Torrossa aims to offer institutions a resource that gives access to scholarly e-books and e-journals, at the same time simplifying acquisitions, licensing and integration with the library catalogue.
