Affordable Textbooks

Initiative Details
The MSU Libraries are expanding the Affordable Textbook Program to include new subjects and smaller classes. This program launched in the Fall 2018, and targeted high enrollment courses. In the Spring 2020, the program will serve more than 50 classes, with a total enrollment of over 17,000 students. . This program is intended to help alleviate the high costs that students face when purchasing textbooks and allow easy access to costly texts, supporting students in their coursework. There are 66 unique titles, with 177 copies of textbooks available for checkout. In Fall of 2019, the program was included in the Give Green Day Campaign and the funds raised from that initiative will continue to help this program grow.
