NDSU lags behind UND, Valley City in offering online textbooks - Kim Hyatt, Grand Forks Herald
The Office of the State Auditor recently performed an audit of how the state’s 11 colleges and universities are implementing online textbooks, finding that NDSU falls behind the University of North Dakota and Valley City State University in offering the resource. More than 250 courses at Valley City offer open, online textbooks, and more than 5,000 students at UND benefited from the resource by not having to buy a physical textbook. Open textbooks are available through an online database that is licensed to allow anybody with the right credentials, such as a student login, to access course materials.
