Go Easy On The Environment - Download!

Multilingual Books has long been committed to earth-friendly and sustainable practices. The recent oil spill is a reminder and a challenge to us all to do what we can to minimize our use of fossil fuels. Luckily for us, technology offers an alternative to the environmental expense of producing and shipping products: downloads.

Downloading your language course is a smart way to reduce your carbon footprint. It's quicker than shipping - and cheaper too. Our downloads give you the same content as the hardcopy editions at less than half the price. Check out our growing list of downloadable courses, including FSI, Linguaphone, and Platiquemos. Save time, money, and our planet.

Giveaway of Downloads

Multilingualbooks is happy to announce a giveaway of free Foreign Service Course downloads to environmental groups, either helping in the gulf, or world wide. Many people are blissfully unaware of the oil spilled on a daily basis in Nigeria thanks to Royal Shell. We thank all the people working on our behalf to make the world a better place to live. To receive your free download course simply send an email or fax on your groups letterhead and include 50-200 word about how language would help you green the planet. (all submissions may be used on our site). We will award 100 free copies this month to qualifying groups, up to 5 copies per group.
