“Wiley has been a close partner for many years, and we look
forward to expanding our relationship to benefit millions of
students,” said Ann Fraley, Vice President, Campus Solutions,
Barnes & Noble College. “By offering Wiley’s digital content
through our First Day™ inclusive access model, we will ensure wider
access to affordable course materials at the more than 1,400
campuses served by Barnes & Noble College and MBS
nationwide.”
“Wiley understands the financial burden felt by students and we
are committed to ensuring they have the materials needed to
maximize their success and learning outcomes,” said Alan Pavese,
VP, Pricing & Commercial Models, for Wiley. “Partnering with
Barnes & Noble Education allows us to provide more students
with the affordable course materials they need.”
Inclusive access models offer course materials at reduced prices
through a course materials charge for participating courses or
programs. According to a recent Barnes & Noble College
Insights℠ survey, 37 percent of college students did not feel
prepared to start the spring 2019 semester – with inclusive access
models, students receive their materials on or before the first day
of class, allowing faculty to begin teaching without delay and
ensuring students are prepared and engaged with course content from
day one.
