1) Robin Ashford discusses George Fox University's Open Textbook Initiative and Library Textbook Affordability Program which aims to increase access to affordable course materials through the use and creation of open educational resources (OERs) like open textbooks. 2) Through faculty workshops and incentives for open textbook adoption and authoring, the program has resulted in over $118,000 in student savings so far and the adoption of open textbooks in 13 courses. 3) The initiative is expanding to include assigning library ebooks for course readings and developing guides on finding open and affordable course materials, with the goal of further increasing access and lowering costs for students.
