College Selects RedShelf for Digital Course Materials Program

RedShelf, the innovation leader in course materials solutions, has been selected by Essex County College to power the course material access program for all students on the College’s two campuses in Newark and West Caldwell. 

 “Our motto is ‘Students First’,” said Essex County College President Dr. Augustine A. Boakye. “RedShelf shares that vision and our commitment to making quality education accessible and affordable.” 

After extensive discussions with College officials and several digital content providers, ECC chose RedShelf to serve as the College’s digital course material distributor in a strategic partnership. The partnership reinforces ECC’s focus on access and affordability. 

RedShelf’s platform will power Essex County College’s Equitable Access program – offering students digital copies of all required textbooks and courseware for an affordable flat fee. Digital course materials are made available automatically to students by the first day of class. 

“The Essex County College equitable access program supports student success by delivering digital course materials to students by the first day of class,” stated RedShelf CEO Rob Holland. “We are delighted to partner with the College for this vital program.”

Dr. Boakye added, “We know this partnership will give our students expanded opportunities to succeed and are committed to providing this program for many years to come.”
