Hi Everyone,

The Rhode Island Open Textbook Initiative celebrated the first year of the five-year challenge set by Governor Raimondo, to save Rhode Island students $5 million in textbook costs, with an exciting report of our savings. With this semester's data still being collected, we have already reported $870,000 in savings across the 11 participating colleges and universities!

Read the press release here: http://www.ri.gov/press/view/31532

We're excited to build on this momentum into the next four years!
