For Immediate Release

STILLWATER - The Oklahoma State University Library has embarked on a pilot project to give students greater access to their textbooks.

The Library has purchased one textbook for each of the 74 classes at OSU that contain 250 or more students. The textbooks are on reserve and available to be checked out daily by students.

“We are trying to provide another way for students to access their books in case they forgot them or simply can’t afford them,” said Richard Paustenbaugh, Associate Dean of Libraries for Research and Instruction Services.

For more information about the Library’s new pilot program, contact Richard Paustenbaugh at (405) 744-5271 or richard.paustenbaugh@okstate.edu.
