Open Textbooks
Open textbooks can help alleviate the burden of textbook costs for students and provide faculty with content that can be customized for their course. Open textbooks are full, real textbooks, used by many faculty across the country, and licensed to be freely used, edited, and distributed.
If you have questions about this workshop or open textbooks, please contact Camille Thomas, the scholarly publishing librarian, at 806.834.5474 or camille.thomas@ttu.edu.
