LEXINGTON, Ky., July 25, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- eCampus.com, an industry-leading provider of online course material solutions for colleges and universities, and learning science company McGraw-Hill Education today announced an agreement for eCampus.com to participate in McGraw-Hill Education's new textbook rental program, making learning materials more affordable for students in the 2018-19 school year and beyond.
Under the agreement, eCampus.com will offer more than 200 McGraw-Hill copyright 2019 titles for rent, in bound or eBook format, through more than 250 Virtual Bookstores and ALL Access programs across the country.

As part of the eCampus.com course material solutions suite, the program focuses on a simple and affordable solution for students to get all the materials they need for their courses with a flat rate price, included as part of their tuition or fees. With the addition of McGraw-Hill's textbook rental program, ALL Access will further reduce the cost of course materials for students. Faculty also benefit from an expanded selection of affordable curriculum options.
