The Textbook Resource Center at the Eagle Store has launched a flat-rate program to make course materials more affordable for students attending Eastern Washington University. This new program potentially can save students hundreds of dollars on the cost of their course materials.

The Canvas eBooks PAY ONE PRICE plan offers three options for students to choose from, based on what works best for their courses each quarter.

PAY ONE PRICE – $170 (tax included) per quarter

All registered students are opted into this plan automatically. As the name suggests, this option covers the cost of all the Canvas eBooks assigned by their instructors for the quarter.

The $170 fee has been charged to each registered student’s EWU account. This new flat rate provides substantial savings for students who need multiple Canvas eBooks, without compromising the quality of the instructor-assigned content.

A LA CARTE

Students who choose this option will be charged for each Canvas eBook separately on their EWU student account and refunded the $170. This option supports students who need less than $170 worth of Canvas eBooks.

OPT OUT of ALL MATERIALS

Students who choose this option are opting out of Canvas eBooks completely and are refunded the entire $170. With this option, students choose to acquire all their own course materials through their own sources.

NOTE: Obtaining non-Canvas eBooks (books that aren’t associated with Canvas eBooks) is the responsibility of the students and are not included in PAY ONE PRICE or A LA CARTE.
