March 8, 2010 - PRLog -- After several months of internal testing, ScholarLinks.net is proud to announce the initial public launch of its first version education bookmarking website.  This free web service has been designed to give everyone involved in education a central place to save and share their favorite online academic resources in a quick and hassle-free way.  

The ScholarLinks web platform allows registered users to create publicly accessible links to any web address that may be of interest to teachers, education administrators, students, and their parents.  Once a link is saved, that user will have quick access to their bookmarks for future reference, and they also get a chance to share the useful links with others who are active in education and academic pursuits.  

Students can collect sources for research projects and exam study guides in one convenient loaction, while teachers might find it useful to save links to their favorite online lesson plans or help their fellow instructors out with bookmarks of the cheaper supplies.  Meanwhile, parents might just need a place to keep track of all the financial aid, scholarship, and loan websites they need to regularly visit.  

By combining these user-submitted links with the latest headlines from some of the web's best education news feeds, each category provides a rich selection of handy addresses for anyone who is trying to learn more - and this catalog is growing by the day!

The power of social bookmarking has already been acknowledged by publishers across the web, but now this technology can be specifically applied for those who are interested in teaching, enrolling in an academic program, or finding a way to finance further education.  While most traditional news outlets rely on one or a few editors at best, the democratic nature of submissions and voting allows bookmarking sites to uniquely tap into the potential editing power of the crowd.

Everyone working in or interested in learning more about the field of education is invited to participate in this online information gathering project at http://ScholarLinks.net. All registered users can contribute their own submissions  and everyone is welcome - so long as the content remains relevant to the primary goal of making education more accessible and more effective!
