Borders offers a specially tailored program directed toward the aspiring author hidden beneath the scholarly robes of teachers. BORDERS’ GET PUBLISHED™ program is powered by the self-publishing service BookBrewer. The program enables teachers to sell their e-books through the Borders Bookstore as well as receive a complementary paperback version of their book.
Educators can create an e-Book and make the content available within a few days on Borders.com, as well as other major e-Book outlets including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple iBooks and Google Books; the content will also display on various platforms including iPhone, iPad, Android, Kobo, and more.
The Borders GET PUBLISHED™ BookBrewer platform is the only retailer-aligned self-publishing service that includes Print on Demand (POD) capabilities, as well as the ability to download DRM-free versions of e-books to share directly with students, family or friends.
The GET PUBLISHED™ co-branded service is just one way Borders is showing its appreciation to educators and the important work they provide to the community. From April 8 – 12, 2011, Borders is hosting Educator Appreciation Days, where administrators and educators receive 30% off the list price of all books, music CDs, toys and games in all the Borders stores nationwide including Waldenbooks and Borders Express.
