Who are major users of Educational Materials Online (EMAT)?

• A. Textbook coordinators at school districts and charter schools.
• B. TEA budget analysts.
• C. Bus drivers.
• D. Food service staff.

Answer: (A)

Educational Materials Online systems are designed to help districts manage instructional resources—cataloging, ordering, distributing, and tracking textbooks and other materials across campuses. The people who handle these tasks across a district or charter school are the textbook coordinators, who oversee selection, procurement, and distribution of instructional materials. That makes them the primary users of EMAT.

TEA budget analysts deal with financial aspects and policy analysis, not the day-to-day management of instructional materials. Bus drivers and food service staff support operations but don’t typically interact with EMAT to manage curricular resources.
