Overview

Livraria Escolar Editora (Portugal) is a company in Lisbon, Portugal, associated with the Grupo Escolar. Its official website presents Escolar as an online book retailer offering titles across categories such as agriculture, architecture and urbanism, astronomy, biology, law, economics, education, engineering, management, history and computing. The Grupo Escolar describes a long-standing culture of promoting books and reading and a presence in the university and academic sector, which it calls its DNA, and it develops editorial projects involving researchers from the Portuguese scientific community and Portuguese-speaking countries.

History

The official website of Escolar Editora carries the tagline 'Deste 1942 ao serviço da ciência, cultura e educação' (Since 1942 in the service of science, culture and education). The Grupo Escolar's about page states that from its foundation its corporate culture has sought to develop its economic activity sustainably and to meet its social obligations and contributions to the State, and that over 70 years it built a difference through boldness and the ability to face the future dynamically, constantly seeking improvement through the diversity of its offer and the quality of its services and its image with the customer. It also states a concern for promoting books and reading in local communities, and that it has a presence in the university and academic sector, which it calls its DNA, developing editorial projects that integrate the valorisation of researchers from the Portuguese scientific community and from countries with Portuguese as an official language. It identifies the development of the African continent, particularly Mozambique and Angola, as an opportunity for the activities of the Grupo Escolar.
