This presentation discusses textbook affordability in higher education, arguing that it is not an either/or issue between new digital options and traditional print textbooks. It provides data on rising textbook prices from 2009-2019 and survey results on student spending and preferences for print vs digital materials. The presentation aims to move the discussion toward innovative hybrid models that expand affordable options for students.
