Abstract
Abstract Selecting course reading materials is not necessarily an easy process. This article discusses selection concerns such as cost, inclusivity and options ranging from traditional textbooks to course packs. A review of literature finds extensive information about adoption of OER materials. Additionally, articles referring to difficulties in course readings are explored, including literacy level and inclusivity. While the literature does not offer a holistic process for instructors, several aspects are described. Based on an analysis of the literature, this paper outlines a process defining five steps that provide instructors with a comprehensive guide for selecting textbooks or other course materials that support learning.
