The Affordable Learning Solutions Initiative (AL$) aims to ease the financial burden of paying for textbooks. The program uses several strategies to provide students with affordable options for learning including access to free online materials and courses, low cost to free e-textbooks, OER library resources, and free faculty professional development and training.

The success of this initiative has produced both significant cost savings, as well as teaching enhancements and improvement in learning. Please check out CSU’s Cool4Ed Website of OER Resources for academic disciplines across the spectrum of higher education.
