Lyryx\u00a0has\u00a0been committed to improving access and affordability in higher education since its inception in the year 2000,\u00a0and since 2013, they have bolstered these efforts by publishing and updating a library of eleven open-source textbooks and supplements\u00a0that\u00a0are available to\u00a0students and instructors at no cost. These resources are\u00a0enhanced\u00a0by\u00a0Lyryx\u2019s\u00a0affordable online assessment platform with\u00a0interactive activities in\u00a0numerous\u00a0electronic formats to encourage students in reading and learning course material.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Claude Laflamme, President and Founder, says \u201cThe institutions and instructors we work with are our partners in delivering learning that is accessible and affordable. The editorial and\u00a0development work we do with them contributes not only to the partnership, but to the OER community as a whole.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Additionally,\u00a0through\u00a0a\u00a0continued allyship,\u00a0Lyryx\u2019s\u00a0affordable online homework\/ exams platform has been paired with no less than seven OpenStax textbooks in the Mathematics\/ Statistics and Business subject areas.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These efforts, along with\u00a0<\/span>Free Lab<\/span><\/i>, an initiative that allows students to\u00a0access their online homework at no cost in campus computer labs,\u00a0have contributed to an impressive $15 million in student savings as compared to traditional textbooks in the last eight years.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lyryx\u00a0is proud\u00a0to be making such an impact, especially as a small team operating within an industry of giants.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
