Textbook Affordability and Open Educational Resources (OER)

This guide is an introduction to Open Educational Resources (OER) and efforts to lower student textbook and course material costs at CCC.

Textbook Affordability at CCC

There are plenty of opportunities for getting involved with Textbook Affordability at CCC. The pages in this section of the guide include information on 

CCC's Textbook Affordability Plan

Clackamas Community College (CCC) is a student-centered organization dedicated to providing equitable, innovative, and responsive education to the community it serves. In service of this mission, CCC has developed a Textbook Affordability Plan to guide Textbook Affordability work at the college.

Textbook affordability offers opportunities to fulfill our College mission. In 2019, Oregon passed Oregon House Bill 2213, which lays out requirements for this plan. A Textbook Affordability Workgroup was formed to develop the plan, which was completed in June 2021. If you are interested in joining the workgroup to further develop this plan or work on other TA initiatives at CCC, please contact Justine Munds: justine.munds@clackamas.edu

Library Resources as Course Materials

Library materials are not the same thing as OER, bt they can be an important component in solving the problem of high textbook prices.
