Yes: 61%
No: 34.1%
I Don't Know: 4.9%
2. Do you prefer to have physical or electronic materials?

5. Would you be willing to pay for your textbooks in e-reading format if you had to pay full price but could only keep them for the academic term?

I find it really interesting that the majority of people who took this prefer printed materials, but thinks the electronic conversion should be made. Any thoughts on that?
