Last year the only new textbook required for my course was a limited-time-use e-book from Cengage. Accessing it of course required me to go through the school to access the textbook, and additional lessons such as quizzes and tests for the specific class that the professor has access to for grading.
I haven't found any information on whether e-books such as this count as required or not required to be purchased from the school because it's not physical. Is there a consensus on this with the above information?
