WVU Open Textbook Review

Affordable Syllabus Review

The Affordable Syllabus Review is a service for WVU instructors who are interested in reducing the cost of course materials by working with a librarian to review their syllabus for affordable, free, and/or openly-licensed alternatives. Participating in this review service can help reduce costs for your students, support you in revising or creating OER, and/or aim to find more diverse course content. We can consult with you to do the following:

  • Identify no cost course materials to replace existing texts in your syllabus, such as OER or library licensed materials
  • Modify existing OER or create your own OER
  • Identify course materials that represent perspectives and content from/about historically marginalized populations and scholars. 

To request an affordable syllabus review, fill out this form. For questions about the service, contact one of the Open Education Committee members, or your liaison librarian.
