Free online textbooks through charity site.
« on: September 04, 2015, 05:17:49 am »
Hello.   

I saw someone post about this on Facebook today and I thought y'all might be interested. It's a site that's funded by a bunch of charities so that they can provide free textbooks to students. They'd probably be supplementary to whatever book is required for your course though. They're not buying textbooks and shipping them to you for free, they're making their own versions of textbooks that are peer reviewed and giving you free ebooks or they'll send you a physical copy that costs as much as the materials to make it. I think the hope is also that professors start using these textbooks for their courses, so that'd be nice.

Seems like a really good idea, but wouldn't use it. Just because it's supposed to be for studs in need, and meh, I dont want to use this if someone else has a bigger need for it.
