What are digital course packets?

The digital course packet (DCP) is a collaboration between the University Libraries and University Bookstore. Digital course packets combine different course-related materials into a single point of access, including journal articles, e-books, web-sites, links, images, and videos. Course materials may be library licensed items, items determined to be fair use, open access materials, and materials that require royalty payments. The main goals are to make course packs more affordable for students and to streamline the course pack creation process for faculty and instructors, providing them with the guidance and services they need to deliver the best and most appropriate course content for their students.
