Zero Textbook Cost (ZTC) Survey: Spring 2024 Semester

Faculty members are invited and encouraged to complete a brief survey (1–2 minutes) to designate courses they are teaching this spring 2024 semester that have zero textbook cost (ZTC). ZTC courses do not require students to purchase textbooks or other learning materials; instead they use open educational resources (OER), library resources, faculty-created resources, and other materials that are freely accessible to students. Gathering this data will enable us to meet SUNY reporting requirements.

Designating your course as ZTC will help make the costs of higher education more transparent to students and will increase equitable access to the materials students need to succeed.

The survey will ask you to provide the spring 2024 CRNs for your ZTC courses. ZTC courses will be designated in Banner so that they are easily identifiable by students during registration. CRNs can be retrieved from department administrators.

More information on ZTC courses is available on the Butler Library website. Please email Chris Hulsman, faculty librarian, with questions.
