online edition

Internet-published format

An online edition is a version of a publication—typically a newspaper, magazine, or book—available on the internet rather than in print.

Many publications maintain both print and online editions, with the online version often updated more frequently: The story broke in the online edition hours before the print run.

Also called a digital edition.
