SAFARI Video Networks Acquires eZedia

Wynnewood, PA (May 25, 2005) – Today, SAFARI Video Networks, a subsidiary
of Library Video Company, announced the acquisition of the award-winning
product assets of eZedia, Inc. The outcome of this important purchase

brilliant multimedia presentations, digital portfolios, electronic slide
shows, interactive CD-ROMs and websites. Students and teachers can combine
and edit graphics, text, sound, videos and even add interactivity with no

“We are extremely pleased to offer this outstanding creation software as
part of the SAFARI Video Networks solution, as eZedia’s visual education
strategy has always been consistent with SAFARI’s vision,” said Timothy
Beekman, President of SAFARI Video Networks.

“We are very excited with what the future holds for us now that we have
joined SAFARI,” said Fred Whitehouse, Sales Director of eZedia, Inc. “While
we will continue to develop and sell eZedia as a solution, it is very
exciting to now be able to bring educators a total integrated digital
solution. Combining eZedia’s easy-to-use yet powerful multimedia authoring
tools with the great array of SAFARI content and delivery systems will, for
the first time, provide students and teachers with the ability to create
standards-based projects. eZedia and SAFARI share the same passion for
moving students from passive to active and engaged learners.”

According to Beekman, SAFARI’s view of the ideal educational network is a
system that provides a variety of robust visual tools and content which
educators use for high-quality presentation and individual instruction. The
vast assortment of applications that SAFARI-supported educators have at
their fingertips allows them to create a powerful visual teaching
environment and an exciting interactive learning setting. “eZedia’s
creative communication software adds a critical and valuable component to
educational networks designed for today’s schools, and we are honored to be
associated with such a reputable and well-respected company,” added Beekman.

eZedia has a loyal and exponentially growing customer base. “The eZedia
product line is the most promising set of new applications I’ve seen in
years. As we considered our multimedia application options, it quickly
became clear that the eZedia products fit our needs perfectly. First,
teacher and student users will benefit from eZedia’s ease of use. A few
basic concepts will get most users off and running with these products. As
use progresses, more sophisticated ideas can be introduced… or even
discovered… by users. This flexibility will allow teachers to
differentiate their curriculum for the various learning styles they have in
the classroom,” said Matt Fuller, Director of Technology and Media
Services, Wilmette Public Schools, Illinois.

eZedia is now a division of SAFARI Video Networks. For more details about
