ADOPT-A-FREE TEXTBOOK FACULTY GRANTS NOW OPEN

Applications are now being accepted for Adopt-a-Free-Textbook Grants, offered by the UTSA Libraries. The grant is open to tenure and non-tenure track faculty, and offers funds to support faculty professional development and teaching.

A workshop featuring UTSA faculty that have adopted OER and David Harris, Editor-in-Chief at OpenStax will be hosted on Monday, March 4, in the JPL Assembly Room, 4.04.22.

The Adopt-a-Free-Textbook Grant was created to support the adoption and adaption of open educational resources at UTSA, offering an incentive for faculty to integrate a free textbook, or other free instructional materials, into a course.

For more information and to apply, visit our OER website and explore our guide to free textbooks that align with high-enrollment courses at UTSA. For more information, contact DeeAnn Ivie, Open Education Coordinator (deeann.ivie@utsa.edu) or Emily Cox (emily.cox@utsa.edu). You can also ask Stan about his experience with the application process and using no-cost and library resources for the grant.
