Scholar's Choice Web Stores and e-Books Drive Sales to Greater Heights

TORONTO, May 11 /CNW/ - Scholar's Choice, a national retailer of educational toys and teaching supplies based in London, Ontario is taking their personalized customer service to a new level. Scholar's Choice has launched four new websites and has introduced Teachers and Educators to e-Books. Scholar's Choice has once again positioned itself to be the leader in online educational toys and teaching supplies.

Scholar's Choice has developed and designed four distinct websites to service their customer's distinct needs. Teachers, Early Childhood Providers and Parents can now shop directly from the site that is tailored to their distinct product and service needs.

The new teacher site features e-Books, an electronic version of a resource book. e-Books provide teachers with the ability to download resource books to a computer, use the information in a classroom immediately and are electronic whiteboard compatible. e-Books allow teachers and students the flexibility to navigate through a worksheet electronically as well as create additional PDFs to share with students working from home or to create power point presentations.

Enhanced e-Books are also available and provide users the additional freedom to copy and paste the text to a variety of digital formats, post lessons, create tests or answer keys on websites.

Scott Webster, President of Scholar's Choice, has commented that "As the leader in Educational Materials and School Supplies in Canada, we made the conscious decision to be first to offer e-Books to our teachers. We are the leading provider of teacher resource books in Canada and this is a natural extension of what we already do."

Teachers across Canada will now have resource materials in a reproducible format at their finger tips. Publishers who were forced to discontinue materials because of reprint costs will now be able to keep content rich materials available in the e-Book format. Teachers will now have access to thousands of titles in an electronic format. e-Books will save teachers time, money, and resources by allowing them to print only what they need, when they need it.

Scholar's Choice retail locations are thrilled to be released from physical storage limits and can offer their retail customers unlimited instant access to the full range of every resource book.
