Atypon
Atypon Systems, LLC, is an online publishing platform provider for publishers and other providers of scientific, technical, medical, scholarly, professional and government content.  It is headquartered in Santa Clara, California. It has been owned by John Wiley & Sons since 2016.

Atypon’s flagship product is Literatum, which was released in 1999. It is a publishing and website development platform that enables content providers to deliver, market and sell any type of digital content as well as to control the user interface and user experience of their publication websites.

History 
The company was founded in Silicon Valley in 1996 by software engineer and Fulbright Scholar Georgios Papadopoulos.

Atypon has grown both organically and through acquisitions. It acquired Extenza e-Publishing Services in 2011.

The acquisition of eMeta in 2008 expanded Atypon’s product portfolio to include RightSuite, an enterprise access and commerce platform for the publishing and media industry. Atypon acquired the Metapress business from EBSCO Information Services in 2014, with the Metapress platform to be discontinued and customers moved to Atypon's Literatum platform.

In October 2016, Atypon was purchased by academic publisher John Wiley & Sons for $120 million. Atypon operates as a separate, independent business unit of Wiley.

In 2018, Wiley migrated its own Wiley Online Library to Literatum.

Atypon has grown internationally, expanding on its initial primary locations in Amman, Jordan, Athens, Greece, Oxford, UK, Santa Clara, CA, and New York, NY to a remote-first workplace
