[b]Capstone Interactive eBooks[/b] are the digital formats of Capstone’s collection of print books - designed to support district literacy goals, language development initiatives, and equitable access to high-quality content whether students are learning at school, at home, or on-the-go.
Schools can build their digital collection in two flexible ways:
