DART Support

DART eBook Program (Effective 6/22/26)

The Day One Access to Resources and Text (DART) program is offered in select National University courses, where students have immediate access to an embedded electronic textbook (eBook).

​

Key benefits:

• Immediate Access to required course materials on the first day of class

• Affordability – We work hard to secure the most competitive prices for academic resources, keeping costs below fair market value for students.

• Accessible – Download the VitalSource Bookshelf app to access your materials on your phone, tablet, or PC.

​​​

For participating courses, to access your eBook(s), once your online course begins, click on the ‘Bookshelf’ link located in the top navigation bar.

For first-time users, you will be prompted to create a VitalSource Bookshelf account. Please be sure to use your NU Student Email address during account creation. This step will ensure you can access your Bookshelf account outside of your course.
