A distribution center in central Indiana is scheduled to close by the end of February. In a notice to the state, Pearson Education officials say more than 200 employees at the Lebanon facility are affected by the move. The company notes more than 120 of the workers accepted a voluntary severance package. The remaining jobs will be eliminated.

Last December, the company announced its intention to phase out the Lebanon operation and move the inventory to a facility in Indianapolis.
