About the role
Over the years, as the cost of higher education has continued to rise, college textbooks have become unaffordable for many students. Individual textbooks can cost up to $400. A new U.S. $5 million pilot program aims to solve this problem by supporting the creation and improved use of open textbooks at colleges and universities. This effort to use free online textbooks could collectively save students $50 million annually.
