Initiative Title	Electronic Books
Submitted in Previous Year(s)	No
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale	The Department feels the time is right to take advantage of electronic books for students and faculty. We are proposing the purchase of Kindle and or mini laptops for a pilot program to determine the efficacy of this transition. E-books would save students and faculty money, be greener, and enhance the learning experience. We hope to collaborate with the bookstore, possibly Honors, the library, IT and other areas in this worthwhile project.
Consequences of this initiative not being funded	Students and faculty will continue to use cumbersome texts, which are costly, kill trees and potentially an outmoded way for millennial students to learn.
