CSU to Begin Digital Textbook Program

The Digital Marketplace, an initiative of the California State University Office of the Chancellor, has announced plans to launch a digital textbook pilot this fall using the VitalSource digital content delivery platform.

Starting in the fall 2010 semester, the pilot is planned to begin at San Diego State University and will be implemented through the university bookstore. Students will receive their content through the Aztec Bookstore portal and access their e-textbook titles through the VitalSource Bookshelf software.
