Using full-collection customers in the United Kingdom as a case study, we looked at usage of our HE digital textbooks since the Higher Education from Cambridge University Press website launched. Between August 2020 and July 2021, there were over 1.6 million uses of the site. These uses range across many subjects with law topping the list, and include students and faculty at 40 UK institutions.
You can view details, including top titles, here.
Higher Education from Cambridge University Press offers the highest quality content and resources from leading authors to instructors and students, supporting successful teaching and learning journeys in today’s rapidly changing educational environment.
The site provides key functionality specifically requested by librarians, including offline reading, highlighting, bookmarking, printing (15% by page count), copying and pasting (15% by word count), annotation capabilities, and full-text searching within textbook content. Also, there’s no limit on the number of concurrent users. The best pricing is via leased access to collections: full, HSS, STM, 17 subjects; title-by-title and bespoke collections are also available.
