Solution Overview & Benefits

OpenStax is an educational nonprofit initiative of Rice University. We are the world's largest publisher of free, open education resources (OER). Trusted by 70% of US colleges and universities, OpenStax saved students $2.9 billion in education costs since 2012.

All of this important work serves our commitment to building a future where each and every student has access to the tools they need to achieve their educational dreams.
