  1. Been in a class with an open source book on Advice On Creating an Open Source Textbook? · · Score: 1

    I took a class last semester where we used Robert Beezer's a first course in Linear Algebra which is available for download. We had the university printing center print each student a copy of 500+ page book. Each student paid $20 for printing (compared to a new traditional book which would cost around $180). The book went over fairly well and my program is now considering using open source again in the future.
