Publisher John Wiley and Sons Inc. has launched a comprehensive program to partner with leading content platform providers to make it more affordable and easier for students to purchase their Wiley course materials, as part of their tuition and fees. Wiley Inclusive Access, in partnership with Barnes and Noble College, Follett, Red Shelf and VitalSource enabled campus stores, not only saves students more than 60 percent off the cost of a bound text, but also provides valuable first-day of class access.
In a study by Vital Source, 63 percent of students who had their textbooks with them on the first day of class completed the course, while only 29 percent of the students who showed up without the materials finished the course.
Instructors at participating campuses, like University of Tennessee at Knoxville, who enroll in Wiley's inclusive access program pass along discounts on WileyPLUS and Wiley eTexts to their students. Wiley's partnership with the University of Tennessee at Knoxville's VolShop, powered by VitalSource, has helped grow their inclusive access program and extend the benefits of the program to more and more students and faculty each term.
