What is BibliU?


BibliU is a digital learning platform that provides access to a wide range of academic textbooks and materials.

BibliU modernizes educational resource access by providing digital textbooks available on any internet-connected device. The platform streamlines course material accessibility for students, offering features such as highlighting, note-taking, and in-text search functionality. This approach enhances the efficiency and accessibility of the learning process. BibliU's Inclusive Access and Affordable First program offers exclusive student pricing that integrates smoothly with students' billing, and may be paid for with financial aid. Students enrolled in participating courses gain immediate access to course materials on the first day of class through the BibliU Course Material link in Canvas navigation.

Please view the Key Features of BibliU Learn brief video that describes the built-in features students will find in a BibliU textbook.

 

BibliU partners with universities and educational institutions to provide students with access to required course materials digitally. This can help reduce costs associated with purchasing physical textbooks and make it easier for students to carry all their materials with them wherever they go. BibliU also offers analytics tools for educators, allowing them to track student engagement with the materials and tailor their teaching accordingly.

Please view the BibliU Florida SouthWestern State College site for more information.
