Shelving our Student Access Issues
RedShelf is primarily serving as a way for students to access their online textbook for a course, retrieve the access code for another online platform, and serve as a license key for other online platforms. Students access it via our learning management system (LMS), Brightspace, and a link is embedded within their individual course sites to allow them to access materials for that site. Because of this, we've been able to use RedShelf to implement a program we call "Direct Digital". This means that students don't need to go out and find/purchase the materials for the course, we actually just add them on as a fee onto the course. This allows students to easily use financial aid and other financial assistance to pay for those materials, and it ensures that all students have access to what they need to complete the course. Once the course is live, they will then just access all their course materials right within Brightspace, which ultimately just makes the process easier/simpler for students.

RedShelf is there for the Independent College Bookstsore
RedShelf is an innovative tool to support lowering the cost of course materials in two major ways. First, they provide the best eText in the industry. Easy to use for our students, consistent across all platforms, and at a tremendously reduced price. Second, they provide the platform for college bookstores to deliver day one access of digital content to our students in the LMS (Learning Management System). And most importantly they provide the opt-out tool for students. We sell eTexts through the RedShelf platform online and in the store and we manage our inclusive access program for day one digital access.
- Communicate- they have a responsive team of experts that help in every way possible. Some companies you don't think there is even a person behind the technology, but with RedShelf you get both excellent customer service and outstanding technology
- Always innovating and always responding to the needs of the customers and students
- Manage the inclusive access program with instructors, publishers, bookstores and students. Not an easy task.
- A key tool in the toolkit to provide affordable learning solutions for higher education
- Waiting for a course management tool to streamline the process. It's in the works and a tall order since all clients approach the process differently.
- A little bit of a stumble with a recent software rollout for day one access roll out, but at least it was intuitive to work through
- Tools to be a strong independent College bookstore
- Great support for rolling out day one digital access
- Good margin for the eText
