LEXINGTON, KY–(EMWNews – August 5, 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.”

eCampus.com CEO Matt Montgomery states, “We at eCampus.com are proud to be

working with 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, CourseSmart and eCampus.com have created the most natural

eTextbook shopping experience on the Internet.
