Eco-Libris is available in two more bookstores

I am happy to announce on two new bookstores that will be offering their customers to balance out books they buy with Eco-Libris at the store: The Muse Book Shop in DeLand, FL (see photo on the left) and Sources of Hope Gifts & Books in Dallas, Texas.

These bookstores join seven other bookstores, where you can already find our stickers and balance out the books you buy on spot, which will result in one new tree planted for every book you buy. The list of bookstores include (by states):

Eco-Libris: plant a tree for every book you read!

balancing out rented textbooks

It seems that everyone is getting prepared to school/ college/ university and so is Eco-Libris.

Today, Chegg.com, a leading local student marketplace and provider of the revolutionary textbook rental service,Textbookflix.com (http://www.textbookflix.com/), announced the launch of a new program "Chegg for Trees", where it partners with Eco-Libris to balance out textbooks that will be rented via this service. The good news are that we already balanced out 500 textbooks!

This is a great program that both reduces the costs of students on textbooks and contributes to the environment by planting trees, and Eco-Libris, which aims to make reading more sustainable, is proud to be part of it.

Sooo, students, whether you're a freshman getting ready for your first year, or a graduate student on your way to Masters or PhD - don't forget to check out this site, http://www.textbookflix.com/, see if you can rent some textbooks, and save money and help the planet at the same time ;-)

You are welcome to take a look at the news release that was issued today by Chegg.com: http://www.marketwire.com/mw/release.do?id=761343

And of course, good luck to all the students out there!
