Summary/Abstract: Although it is increasingly common for foreign language teachers to rely on external, online tools and resources, coursebooks are still fundamental elements of classroom-based FLT in many parts of the world. The study presented in the article therefore sets out to explore English Language Teaching (ELT) and German Language Teaching (GLT) coursebook packages available for use in Hungarian secondary education in terms of their print and digital components, shedding light on the ways in which publishers are trying to keep pace with freestanding digital materials. It thereby aims to highlight current global trends in relation to digitization in foreign language coursebook publishing.
