Open Educational Resources

OpenStax is one example of a popular OER publisher. With OpenStax books, students have the option of accessing a free PDF of the textbook or, if they prefer print, they can order a low-cost print copy.

If you're OER curious and would like to see what an OER textbook is like, I've put together a small collection of OpenStax textbooks, in my office, for you to come by and peruse at your convenience. Titles include:
