CarmenBooks
Through a partnership with Unizin, significant savings have been negotiated with many major textbook publishers–up to 80% off retail price.
Digital textbooks are delivered directly in CarmenCanvas in a tab called CarmenBooks, allowing access to every student at the beginning of the semester.
How It Works
Learning Experience
Students who delay textbook purchases start the semester at a disadvantage. By making texts available on or before the first day of class, students are positioned for success from day one.
Inclusive Access
All students in a course using CarmenBooks have access to their digital learning materials on or before the first day of class through CarmenCanvas. Students pay for course materials through a fee, noted during course registration.
Savings
Publisher materials provided through CarmenBooks are made available to students at a negotiated rate. Through CarmenBooks, the average textbook is around $35, which is 77% less than the average GE textbook price at Ohio State.
