This is a partnership with publisher Houghton Mifflin Harcourt into the K-12 education space. It is a digital textbook rental system. This makes digital versions of HMH's K-12 textbooks available for renting at only $9.99 or less for a year.

These books come with attractive features such as;

• A journal of student's notes
• PDFs and other content

• Course Manager for organizing multiple textbooks
• 3D functionality for select chemistry titles
• links to relevant academic material .Video links are also available. 
• Quiz Me function

After registering on the Kno site, https://kno2.com/login/   a student will receive an invite link to be sent out by December 31, according to the website.A recipient can then choose any book in Kno’s bookstore. Participants that  get an etextbook invite will be able to choose a free title up until January 31, 2012.This offer will end once $10M is reached in their total giveaways.
