Preparing Our Campuses for Digital Course Materials Adoption: An Improvised Panel

Experimentation with digital course materials, including e-textbooks, is a hot topic in higher education. Working collaboratively, the Bowdoin Bookstore, Library, and Information Technology division are preparing their campus for adoption of digital course materials, supporting e-textbook pilots in several disciplines and building customized library e-collections. Experiences shared by speakers on an "improvised panel" will expand this conversation to include efforts at other institutions. Have you integrated commercial or open-source textbooks into your LMS or supported faculty development of alternatives to print textbooks? Please contact Tina Finneran ([email protected]) if you would like to share your experiences as an improvised panelist.
