In recent years, Edco’s digital technology has won several sought-after industry awards, including the Digital Media Award for best in e-learning, along with the ICT Excellence Award, in the same category. Edco prides itself on being the first publisher to have made the full post-primary digital curriculum available across a wide range of platforms, including Windows, Apple and Android devices and the soon-to-be-launched Windows 8, using native applications which allow pupils to work both online and offline.
Edco’s unique eBook technology was developed over a five-year period and is Ireland’s only cloud-based, fully HTML5 eBook platform, offering extensive cross-platform compatibility and secure unlimited back-ups of student content. It eliminates the need for a heavy school bag, connects students to the wider digital world, and, most importantly, ensures that learning is greatly enhanced through interactivity. Edco works closely with schools to review their eBook strategies and fine-tune plans for embracing e-learning and rolling out one-to-one learning.
Edco is committed to publishing organically produced content – materials written by Irish teachers for Irish teachers – to the highest possible standard, in order that pupils of all abilities can reach their full potential. Edco believes in investing in our people, firstly by recruiting the best and then by training and motivating them to grow with the company, and meet the needs of our customers.

An Gúm’s professional mission is to produce publications and resources in support of Irish-medium education and of the use of Irish in general. An Gúm was set up in 1926. It is the biggest publisher of Irish books in the country. It was part of the Department of Education until the cross-border bodies were set up in 1999 when its functions transferred to Foras na Gaeilge. An Gúm has published around 2,500 publications and 350 pieces of music since its establishment.
These days An Gúm is mostly engaged in lexicography, the publication of textbooks and resources for schools as well as general reading material for children. Foras na Gaeilge has a statutory function in relation to these areas. An Gúm has just completed publishing the first phase of the ambitious Séideán Sí project. This is a joint venture between Foras na Gaeilge and the Department of Education and Science which produces high-standard Irish language teaching resources for Gaeltacht schools and for schools teaching through the medium of Irish. It is currently about to embark on the second phase of this project with its strategic partners COGG and CCEA and produce a range of online and digital resources for the project.
Is é sprioc ghairmiúil an Ghúim foilseacháin agus áiseanna a chur ar fáil mar thacaíocht leis an oideachas trí mheán na Gaeilge agus le húsáid na Gaeilge i gcoitinne. Bunaíodh An Gúm i 1926. Is é an foilsitheoir leabhar Gaeilge is mó sa tír é. Ba chuid den Roinn Oideachais é go dtí gur bunaíodh na forais thrasteorann i mí na Nollag 1999 agus is cuid d'Fhoras na Gaeilge ó shin é. Tá thart ar 2,500 foilseachán agus 350 píosa ceoil foilsithe ag an nGúm ó bunaíodh é.
Sa lá atá inniu ann is ag plé leis an bhfoclóireacht, le foilsiú téacsleabhar agus áiseanna scoile agus le hábhar léitheoireachta don aos óg is mó a bhíonn An Gúm. Tá cúram reachtúil ar leith ar Fhoras na Gaeilge maidir leis na nithe sin. Tá deireadh díreach curtha ag an nGúm leis an gcéad chéim den tionscadal ceannródaíoch bunscoile, Séideán Sí. Comhthionscadal é seo idir Foras na Gaeilge agus an Roinn Oideachais agus Eolaíochta maidir le foilsiú áiseanna teagaisc Ghaeilge ar ardchaighdeán do na scoileanna Gaeltachta agus do na Gaelscoileanna. I gcomhar lena gcomhpháirtithe straitéiseacha tá an Gúm ar tí tosú leis an gcéad chéim eile den tionscadal, is é sin réimse acmhainní digiteacha agus ábhar ar líne a chur ar fáil.
