What is FacultyONLINE?
FacultyONLINE is the most comprehensive resource for college and university faculty members looking for textbooks or academic material to be used in the classroom. It is the only destination where faculty members can gather information on books from all publishers, connect with professors using specific titles, browse an online course syllabus library, and request examination copies without the hassle of going publisher to publisher. Why is it important for me to use FacultyONLINE?
FacultyONLINE is designed for academics to interact with books in a whole new way. On a daily basis you interact with books; be they textbooks, professional books, or even fiction and nonfiction titles. FacultyONLINE provides you a way to save these interactions in a virtual library as well as see how your colleagues across the globe interact with books. How does it work?
The genesis of this site grew out of a desire to provide faculty members a secure, efficient, advertisement free, environment to find textbooks that were applicable for course use. Before FacultyONLINE professors would have to browse between 4 to 6 academic publisher web sites to make sure they reviewed all their options, or use an online book retailer that was designed more for a consumer purchasing a book for pleasure reading. The results were inevitably suboptimal and extremely time consuming. Who is using this product?
College and university faculty members as well as publishers who want to advertise to their audience. Is this the right solution for me?
If you are a publisher who wants to gain exposure within your target market, then FacultyONLINE is the right solution for you. You may also choose to use FacultyONLINE for free if you are a college or university faculty member.
