Booku

Booku was launched by Eclipse on 1 March 2011 as a new foray into the growing eBook market in Australia. Booku is powered by US-based company OverDrive Inc., which provides world-class infrastructure for distributing premium digital content.

Booku's parent company Eclipse Commerce Pty Ltd is socially and environmentally aware: Boomerang Books is Australia's first carbon neutral online bookstore; we are a proud member of the Australian Made Retail Supporter Program; we are active members of the Australian Booksellers Association; and we are a monthly contributor to selected Australian charities.  Through its Booku brand, Eclipse supports sustainable, environmentally-friendly reading through electronic delivery and consumption of book content.

Boomerang Books

In addition to its carbon neutrality, Boomerang Books has implemented a host of environmentally-friendly measures to minimise its internal environmental footprint. In this way, Boomerang Books is contributing to the environmental sustainment of the Australian book industry.

Carbon Neutrality

Books are made of carbon.  Trees are felled to pulp paper.  Energy is consumed to publish and print books.  Fuel and resources are consumed by the supply chain that delivers books to the customer's doorstep. 

It is appropriate that Boomerang Books, as a book retailer, contributes back to the environment from which its books are derived.

By making a contribution, Boomerang Books is helping to ensure that book publishing and retailing are sustainable practices into the future.  Boomerang Books is doing its part to ensure that coming generations will have the opportunity to read and treasure books, as we do today.
