OER Textbook Readers for Students

Some courses at the College have OER textbooks available. That can save you money! You can find them on the  COM Bookstore page, using "OER" in the search box. We also list them in our Textbooks pages by course subject where they are available. 

Most OER textbooks are available in PDF or ePub format, or both. If you use one of the reader apps below you'll be able to read OER textbooks on your device as well as add add highlights and notes, just as you would in a print version.

In addition to highlights and notes, you may be able to use certain adaptive featured like the options below, so you may want to review the about pages to see which app is best for you.  

  • Text to speech
  • Change text style and size
  • Make highlights
  • Add notes
  • Add bookmarks
