What Are Open Textbooks? Open Textbooks are not just another alternative to expensive traditional textbooks—they're a revolution in educational resources. Funded, published, and licensed to be freely used, adapted, and distributed, these books are designed to make learning more accessible for everyone.  Why Choose Open Textbooks?

This means more students can have the resources they need without the financial burden. High Quality:  Each book has been reviewed by faculty from colleges and universities nationwide to ensure it meets high academic standards.
