GPO Teams Up with Apple to Sell Federal eBooks
GPO will continue to work with Apple to add new titles to the iTunes Store. GPO also makes eBooks available in partnership with Google’s eBookstore, Barnes & Noble, OverDrive, Ingram, Zinio, and other online vendors.
“GPO is establishing itself as a source for government publications in an eBook format through our relationships with multiple vendors,” said Acting Public Printer Davita Vance-Cooks. “I am pleased that GPO provides the public with access to many popular Federal eBook titles. This is another example of the many formats the agency offers the public to access Federal Government information.”
