The Student PIRGs conducted this study to evaluate the long-term potential of new lower-cost options for college textbooks which include cost-reducing options for traditional text books, such as e-Books, e-Readers, rentals and alternative publishing models. In 2010 a survey was conducted with students from 10 campuses and an analysis of text book prices for 10 common college subjects. This report highlights findings and makes recommendations for the diverse preferences of students.
