Freeload Press - 1,000,000 free college textbooks

Concerned with the high costs of college, Freeload Press, a college textbook publisher and distributor founded by academics and publishers, has introduced a revolutionary publishing model that provides free college textbooks. Students download free e-textbooks and can purchase inexpensive paperback versions. Both the e-textbook and the paperback are underwritten by commercial sponsors. Following a successful beta launch this current academic year, the company announced that it is now lining up corporate sponsors and advertisers to underwrite the distribution of 1,000,000 free college textbooks
