Apple will show textbooks optimized for use on the iPad at the Guggenheim Museum in New York in January 2012. Apple's emphasis is on developing the tools for building the digital textbooks of the future, with a service that could become the way for schools and textbook publishers to develop the digital material of tomorrow. This also creates the link between the media companies such as Apple with its iPad and the textbook creators such as media companies who create the digital content, so that new digital content can be created with the best optimizing software and compatible formatting for the electronic devices. Apple's Roger Rosner, vice president of productivity applications, leads the effort.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
