New Name for Follett Content Group
Follett Content Solutions is the new name for the Follett business that provides a range of educational materials to PreK-12 libraries, classrooms, learning centers, and school districts. The group had operated under the Follett School Solutions (FSS) umbrella, but that division will now focus solely on providing educational technology for K-12 districts and schools.
As part of the plan to give FCS its own identity, the company has a new website and its email addresses now end in @follettcontent.com. Follett is backing the change with new marketing and advertising campaigns.
“We are bringing the same great service, but with a refreshed focus on getting the books into the hands of kids,” said Britten Follett, CEO of Follett Content, in a statement. “We always will answer the call with unique insights and a personalized touch.”
FCS’s newest initiative is the launch of Follett Book eFairs, an online book fundraising offering for all PreK-8 U.S. schools.
In September 2021, the Follett family sold FSS to the investment firm Francisco Partners.
