Support Textbooks for All

Initial funds that launched Textbooks for All are nearly gone!

A textbook is a crucial part of almost every class, but with prices that are often $150 per book or more, and with multiple courses per term — these costs add up quickly.

For some students, affording the necessary textbooks for their courses can be a serious and stressful barrier to success. Without your help, students could once again face impossible choices like going without access to their required textbook or going without other necessities.

Textbooks for All gives students free access to high-demand textbooks — both print and digital — right through our Library.

Thanks to donors like you, 571 print textbooks and 190 eBooks have been added to the collection. Students from all faculties have accessed these books more than 197,000 times — which represents a 373% growth in use since donors invested in this program!

Your generosity will go to work right away — expanding the textbook collection, reducing waitlists and helping students focus on learning.

Please give today to support textbook access for all U of R students.
