Promoting Information Access: Textbook Selection

Whenever possible, choose textbooks and other materials that are available in both print and digital format. If a digital version is available, students can transfer textbook information to an alternate format. With digital format, students can search for key phrases and use other advanced features.

Tips:

• Adopt textbooks early so there is sufficient time to produce a digital version if one is not available from the publisher.
• Consider using textbooks and materials that are available with online practice tests, supplements, and learning supports.
