Workshop Facilitator: Gretchen Avery, Textbook Specialist, Jerome Library 

Workshop Category: Support 

Workshop Duration: 1 hour 

BGSU faculty and instructors are required to register textbooks, open textbooks, and course materials via Verba, the University’s textbook reporting program, in order to comply with the Higher Education Opportunity Act. Once course materials are registered in Verba, students are able to access their booklist and compare prices from major online retailers, ensuring they have access to the correct course materials at the most affordable price. This interactive training will show you how to register your required course items in Verba. Time will be provided during the training to register your own requirements for the summer semester and to plan for fall.  

In this workshop, you will learn how to: 

• Register textbooks, open educational resources (OER) and other course materials using Verba 

• Utilize Verba in an efficient and accurate manner. 

All BGSU faculty and instructors are welcome to attend this session. This training is not recommended for Verba department reviewers, as the workshop will cover a different Verba view and functions.
