Go Electronic Campaign Going Strong

It's not too late to join the many paper Common Manual users who have decided to support additional grants for students by either giving up their paper Common Manual and using an electronic version or agreeing to print the annual update on site. Texas Guaranteed (TG) has pledged half the cost savings realized from no longer having to print, package, and mail the Common Manual to the TG Grant Program. As a result, Texas students could receive up to $9,000 in additional grants for higher education.

Since the Go Electronic campaign began, monthly downloads of the integrated Common Manual have increased from 668 to 1,551. TG is pleased to see that customers are checking out, and using, the online manual in large numbers. If you haven't already done so, now's the time to visit the integrated Common Manual at www.tgslc.org/resources/integrated_online_manual.cfm and make your decision about whether you really need to receive a paper copy of the Common Manual. To date, more than 71 percent of campaign respondents have chosen to Go Electronic.

Plan to visit the Integrated Common Manual booth at the TG Conference for a demonstration of the Manual and attend our training session to learn tips and tricks for online searches. For a comprehensive review of the integrated Common Manual's features, see the Go Electronic articles in the January and February 2001 editions of Shoptalk.
