Now The Sacramento Bee can be delivered electronically to your classroom.   The  electronic edition, or “e-edition,” of The Bee has the same news, sports, features, business and entertainment as the printed edition, except without the inky fingers. It’s an electronic version of the newspaper -- an exact digital replica of the printed edition -- that you can view on any computer. It’s easy to use and it’s delivered fresh to your email inbox. Best of all, it’s available to you and your students at no cost, thanks to the generous support of our subscribers and business partners.  Go to http://guide.sacbee.com/125/story/23.html or visit our website at www.solanoreader.org and click “In the News” for The Sacramento Bee link.

By offering the newspaper in e-editions we hope to address some of the environmental concerns by accomplishing the following -

• Saving the paper that is used in producing the newspaper, thereby saving more trees
• Saving the fuel now used for delivery of newspapers, thereby resulting in fewer carbon emissions
• Reducing the waste of left over newspapers, so there will be less to dispose of at the schools

In addition, there are many benefits to teachers, some of which are -

• Convenience - teachers can click on link from any computer
• Better selection - teachers can print only the articles, ads, or sections that are needed
• The program enhances computer literacy skills
