Online Adoption Instructions

Beginning with Fall 2025 adoptions, a new regulation is in place requiring faculty and instructors must attest to the review of all required course materials for the courses they teach each semester to ensure their appropriateness. Once new procedures are finalized we will update this guide; in the meantime, the Provost's office has put up this FAQ on the new regulation: https://www.usf.edu/provost/faculty-success/resources-policies-forms/guidelines-faculty-textbook-attestation.aspx

The website you use for adoptions will depend on whether your courses are in the Main Campus or Health instance of Banner.
