Go green. Save green.
Introducing eco-friendly custom course materials.

It takes only three professors to save one tree.

One tree is needed to produce every three printed course pack orders. We found that statistic staggering. And empowering. Please join XanEdu Custom Publishing in improving the environment through the adoption of online course materials.

XanEdu's Online CoursePacks:

Eliminate printing and production.

Online course packs eliminate the reams of paper and energy consumed by the commercial printing and production processes, not to mention the emissions related to making the paper and print cartridges. Students who prefer hard copy can print individual readings as needed using their own, more energy-efficient desktop printers.

Can be purchased and delivered through your campus bookstore or online.

Sold through a bookstore as an access key package, online course packs contain an access key printed on a single sheet of paper and just a front cover, back cover, and fully recyclable piece of corrugated cardboard—using 97% less paper than a traditionally printed pack. Online purchase and delivery eliminates the paper, ink, and energy from the printing and production processes, as well as the carbon emissions required to transport your course packs.

Save students money.

Printing, production, and shipping and handling fees can be reduced or eliminated through the smaller access key packages or online course pack purchase, delivery, and viewing.

Contain dynamic content and are convenient for students.

Online materials include all of the same content as a traditionally printed course pack—business cases, articles, book chapters, your own materials, and more—but can be enhanced with multimedia options like video cases, PowerPoint presentations, Web links and HTML. Students can access all of their online course materials through their “My XanEdu” account at any time, from any Internet connection.

Can be linked within your course management system.

Include a link to your course pack within popular learning tools such as Blackboard and eCollege for complete course management all in one place. You won’t have to decipher complex licensing laws and are protected from the risks of hosting digital content.

Are completely copyright compliant.

Our expert copyright clearance services give you unlimited content options.We offer a 100% copyright compliance guarantee on all items in each course pack, every term, and have a 98% permission success rate in addition to hundreds of pre-clearance publisher agreements and a searchable database of over 20,000 licensed business cases and articles.

Prefer a more traditional, printed course pack?
Not to worry. The paper used for our print and online plus print formats contains post-consumer recycled paper and is free of acid and elemental chlorine. This manufacturing process requires 10% fewer trees, is 4% more energy efficient, emits 4% fewer greenhouse gases, 9% fewer hazardous air pollutants, and generates 5% less solid waste and water pollutants than traditional paper milling.

For your own original works, anthology, lab manual, or custom textbook, XanEdu's Copley Custom Textbooks can be printed on 100% recycled paper using soy ink!
