Nearly half of all colleges and universities nationwide choose RedShelf to help them evolve swiftly and effectively in the digital age—by providing digital textbooks through their Point-of-Sale (bookstore) or through an automatic-delivery Inclusive Access or Equitable Access model.
Offering best-in-class digital course materials, an end-to-end Content Delivery System for efficiently distributing those materials, and wholly unmatched customer support, we are a comprehensive partner for digital transformation.

Our Award-Winning Digital Course Materials
Improve affordability while enhancing the learning experience.
Our vast catalog includes nearly a million dynamic digital titles (both eBooks and courseware) from more than 10,000 publishers and content creators. That means we'll almost always have the titles you're looking for. And when we don't, we can typically obtain it in short order.
All of our eBooks are delivered on the award-winning RedShelf eReader, packed with built-in study tools and industry-leading accessibility features for students with disabilities. By upgrading to RedShelf Classroom, your instructors can personalize and enhance their adopted eBooks even further by embedding notes, quizzes, discussions, and multimedia to increase engagement, assess comprehension, and inform classroom instruction.
