Library Video Company WINS the EdNET 2006 Pioneer Award

SAFARI Montage lauded for its important contributions to K-12 education

Philadelphia, PA (September 25, 2006) - Library Video Company was awarded the prestigious EdNET 2006 Pioneer Award at the EdNET Conference in Boston, MA. The Pioneer Award honors organizations that have made important contributions through their products and programs to the education industry in the past year.

SAFARI Montage, Library Video Company’s broadcast-quality, digital video-on-demand solution, provides schools and districts with digital access to hundreds of educational programs from the finest video publishers in the world, including the award-winning Schlessinger Media. EdNET judges summed up Library Video Company’s SAFARI Montage product as “Smart. Just smart. From considerations regarding bandwidth and, especially quality, this company to me seems to get it in a very Pioneer-ish way.”

“We’re honored to have won an award which recognizes the unique visual learning attributes of SAFARI Montage,” said Andrew Schlessinger, CEO of Library Video Company. “Our new product, SAFARI Montage WAN Manager, is being released later this month and takes both district-wide video-on-demand and Digital Media Management to another level,” he added.

“We’re proud of this recognition and will continue to develop innovative technology solutions to help educators enhance and improve visual learning,” said Tim Beekman, President of SAFARI Video Networks.

A panel of leading education industry experts selected the finalists for the EdNET 2006 Industry Awards, which is coordinated by The Heller Reports and Quality Education Data (QED), a Scholastic company and leading provider of integrated marketing services for the pre-K through higher education markets.

“Our goal in providing on-going coordination of the EdNET awards is to recognize the finalists as model organizations that are moving the industry forward, making a unique contribution that embodies the spirit of business in service of K-12 education,” said Michael Jay, President of Educational Systemics.

“We commend the EdNET Industry Award finalists for going the extra distance to inspire and support educators in their efforts to advance classroom learning, so that our nation’s students will be prepared to compete in a global economy,” said Andy Lacy, general manager of QED.
