What is TAC?

Hosted and produced by the National Association of College Stores (NACS), the Textbook Affordability Conference (TAC) is a unique event – a working conference – that brings campus stakeholders together to explore textbook affordability strategies, share success stories, discuss effective practices, and offer solutions.

 

What does it mean to pull people into a topic like affordability and really make it work on your campus? It goes beyond one department's opinion or implementation strategy. All stakeholders—university leaders, faculty, librarians, campus store directors, students, and content providers—are invited to attend.

 

The value of TAC is when attendees collectively engage with one another and create plans to drive solutions for affordability and student success on their campuses.
