Updating information is the biggest advantage of a digital yearbooks. New school years bring new students, faculty and staff. New members of the community have different requirements when it comes to accessing information. Digital yearbooks can easily provide up-to-date biographical data on all current members of the school community. Plus, teachers can easily update biographical information on their current students. This allows for a more accurate portrayal of current student life at hand-stitch historical moments.

An additional advantage of digital yearbooks is that they allow for easy content addition and modification. Authors can easily add photos and other content to their yearbooks. Additionally, the schools themselves can update information in these yearbooks as they deem necessary. No longer do users have to wait for publishers to produce new editions of their yearbooks. Instead, schools can update digital versions of their yearbooks with new content as needed. This frees up resources for more important updates to the yearbook or allows authors more time to craft quality content.
