The 2001-02 Stats Handbooks for ice hockey and pro basketball are already available electronically through the company’s website, with the rest of its collection to follow.
The e-books will go on sale before their print equivalents and are priced at $9.95 instead of $19.95 for the conventional version. A $24.95 package offers customers both formats.
Stats Inc president Alan Leib said: “By providing our popular sports handbooks in a digital format, Stats is offering the sports fan a more versatile, convenient and economic way to enjoy our in-depth information.
“We are proud to be at the forefront of what is sure to become a publishing standard, particularly in sports information.”
