Always Learning

Students pay less while gaining greater educational value from course content that is custom-designed and edited to meet the institution's and faculty's specific needs — allowing greater control over what is in the text and what is not helps make education more affordable and content more focused. Customized textbooks greatly reduce the cost of textbooks, combining material from multiple sources into one book. Students are freed from the costly burden of purchasing multiple texts.

Pearson Custom Library

Pearson Custom Library is an online book-building platform. Educators use the platform to create a custom version of a Pearson text, incorporating a limited amount of their own material or material from other publishers. This easy to use platform provides a simple process for searching content, building an evaluation copy and creating an ISBN for an affordable custom textbook that fits course needs exactly.

Custom Publications

Publishing your custom textbook with Pearson gives you the power to create tailor-made tools for your course that puts you, your students, and their education first. Your experienced consultant can help you cull through award-winning titles from around the world, 3rd party readings, articles and case studies. Combine content however you wish and build a custom text or reader with the content your students need to succeed.

Our award-winning creative department designs your customized textbook. Our experienced copyright, development and production professionals see the project through, assuring desk copies arrive at your office and student copies are delivered to your campus bookstore.

In some cases, customized textbooks can be marketed to audiences beyond your institution. Your expert consultant works with our marketing department to evaluate the sales potential for your title beyond your campus. We market our titles at local, regional and national levels.
