Schools would save hundreds of thousands in books if they would go to e readers. School books are outdated as soon as they are published. With E books any data could be updated immediately. No storage, no lugging books back and forth, no lost books. The E readers would be cheaper then s student's list of books/ Most ollege text books are available in E form and saving the students hundreds of dollars. It's rather silly not to see the advantage of e books for students.
