About NewsBank Learning: U.S. History and NewsBank, inc.:

NewsBank Learning: U.S. History was developed by NewsBank, inc. (NewsBank) to deliver a more efficient, impactful classroom resource for teaching and learning U.S. History. The new product leveraged NewsBank’s 50+ years of expertise in providing vetted, credible primary source news content from around the world to meet the research needs of public libraries, colleges, universities, schools, military and government libraries, and professionals globally.

About the relationship:

When developing NewsBank Learning, the Product Management and Development teams made the strategic decision to focus primarily on the core functionality of the product rather than building in-house integrations with multiple LMS solutions used by learning institutions. After reading several blog posts, NewsBank identified Edlink as a potential partner for these integrations and contacted them via their online form.

Following several collaborative conversations, NewsBank selected Edlink as their integration partner. With one integration to Edlink’s Unified API, NewsBank expanded its connections to dozens of the most popular LMS, SIS, and IAM providers saving them hours of development time – helping them bring NewsBank Learning to market more quickly.

“After an evaluation of Edlink as an integration solution partner, it was clear to us that the Unified API along with their collaborative culture was a great fit for NewsBank and NewsBank Learning. This has proven to be true.”
- Peter Simon, VP of Product Management at NewsBank

Edlink is the fastest and easiest way to integrate your learning platform with school data systems. Working with Edlink's Unified API saves development teams from headaches, accelerates time-to-market for operational teams, and helps sales teams win more deals.

Edlink currently supports 100+ edtech companies and helps over 40 million people use their edtech products seamlessly with their school’s LMS, SIS, and identity management platform (like Clever and ClassLink).
