To reinforce its commitment to keeping the cost of a quality education affordable, the University of Northern Iowa has continued to grow its textbook equity initiative. Most recently, UNI announced the winners of its mini-grant program, which will create five free, openly-licensed textbooks that will be used in one or more courses and are expected to save students more than $64,000 a year. This is on top of the $400,000 a year the initiative has already saved students due to open textbook adoptions.
