ESchool News, June 9, 2005

...For many schools, the digital supplements give a home to the scores of unused images that don't make it into most print yearbooks. And they provide a keepsake of the most noteworthy events in the spring, when it's usually too late to squeak past the print yearbook's deadline.

..."I believe, in the next two years, the vast majority of print yearbooks will have a digital supplement, either a CD-ROM or a DVD, snapped into their covers."

..."The big advantage is that all the big senior events are on the CD," said Sarah Britton, 17, yearbook editor-in-chief at Conard High School.

..."Things like graduation and senior prom and the senior picnic don't make it in the book," Britton said. "With the CD, it's still part of the yearbook, even if it isn't [in] the yearbook itself."

...schools opting for these high-tech yearbooks cross the socioeconomic spectrum, from urban to suburban districts.
