Bücherlose UniversitätMany professors began abandoning textbooks as the sole source of information 20 years ago, said David Ward, president of the American Council on Education in Washington, D.C. While paperles campuses would appear to be the next step, Ward said he does not believe textbooks will disappear entirely. "I don't think this is a complete substitution for textbooks but an enhancement," Ward said. "Many people think one will replace the other, but I think the two will coexist side by side, like online classes and brick-and-mortar institutions." Trotz dieses Gedankens wird die University of Phoenix ab sofort den Kauf von normalen Bücher einstellen und stattdessen ihren Studenten die benötige Literatur für eine Semesterpauschale von 70$ online zur Verfügung stellen.
