From the meeting
The Textbook Affordability Work Group will resume meetings for the fall semester and is confirming continued availability on the fourth Tuesday of each month. The statewide low textbook cost threshold also drops from $50 to $30 for the Winter 2027 schedule. That change affects course-material strategy and may influence OER and textbook program support.

What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks West Valley College's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
