Engage - eReader Transition to VitalSource [UPDATED]
2026-08-10 13:28
VitalSource recently purchased RedShelf, the vendor of the eReader previously used for Engage eTexts. Because of this, the Engage eReader was transitioned to VitalSource's eReader on Friday, May 15 (from 9:30-10:30 AM). Most users will find the overall reading experience familiar, and all Engage digital materials continue to integrate seamlessly with Canvas. However, there are some differences in features and workflows that instructors and students should review before the start of the fall semester.
