The Future of Course Materials and the Impact on Higher EducationThe learning content ecosystem is changing dramatically and rapidly with implications for all. The National Association of College Stores (NACS) wanted to better understand those implications—now and moving forward—for all players and identify specific actions institutions can take to support the migration to more affordable and effective course materials.
