The briefing paper looks at the textbook market and moves to digital and more interactive learning. It analyses new approaches to textbook provision including Open Textbooks and the rise of e-textbook platforms. A recent report for the Society of College, National & University Libraries (Sconul) listed ‘students as customers’ as one of the five top '​transformational’ trends that will impact libraries over the next ten years.
