Abstract

In Fall 2022, Musselman Library conducted its second course materials survey, this time in collaboration with 10 other liberal arts colleges from around the country. The results from this new survey illuminate how students are affected by textbook and course material costs, how they cope with these costs, and how effects and behaviors have changed since our 2019 survey.

This report summarizes the background of the project, key findings, and recommendations.

Comments

Local survey results were first shared with the campus during our Friday Forum presentation: "Spend, Stress, and Struggle: Gettysburg College Student Textbook and Course Materials Survey 2022"
