Open Textbooks: Catalog
Open textbooks are college texts offered online under a license that allows free digital access, low-cost print options and customization by instructors.
Visit the University of Minnesota's Open Academics Textbook Catalog to see examples of open textbooks, including a subject-by-subject index and faculty reviews. The Student PIRGs worked closely with UMN's College of Education and Human Development to create this catalog and actively seeks to spread the word!
