eCampus.com announces partnership with CourseSmart
Lexington,
KY, July, 15, 2008 – eCampus.com, one of America’s first online textbook
retailers, proudly announces a groundbreaking partnership with digital textbook
giant CourseSmart. This partnership will give eCampus.com customers
access to CourseSmart’s massive digital library of eTextbooks. By
partnering with CourseSmart, eCampus.com will be able to offer students an
environmentally friendly opportunity to save money on textbooks.
eTextbooks
are becoming an increasingly popular alternative to traditional textbooks for
students seeking cheaper books and faster access to study materials. eTextbooks
save students money by offering lower retail pricing through the elimination of
the shipping, physical, and environmental costs associated with traditional
textbooks. The partnership between eCampus.com and CourseSmart offers consumers
the ability to obtain nearly instant access on an ever growing selection of
eTextbooks.
“With
over 4,000 of the best-selling textbooks available, CourseSmart provides a new
choice to millions of college students who will now find that their assigned
textbook is available as an eTextbook”, said Sean Devine CourseSmart CEO. “Our partnership with eCampus helps support our
goal of providing this choice to students wherever they are shopping for their
course materials.”

CourseSmart to provide quick easy access to the largest single collection of
eTextbooks in existence. This is another in a long line of firsts for
eCampus.com, dedicated to providing America’s students with the best
variety of low-cost educational materials.
I believe that this partnership positions eCampus as the best stop for
college students to find new, used, and now electronic textbooks”
CourseSmart
eTextbooks through eCampus.com will be available by August 2008. By
incorporating a simple, down to earth approach to purchasing and downloading,
