The University Store works closely with faculty to insure course books are readily available to students.  We also try to supply as large a quantity of used books as possible from many sources.  Unfortunately, there are situations where only new titles are available such as when a new edition of the book is published.  Used course books generally retail for 25% less than new course books and the quality of used textbooks may vary.  Substitutions to your order may be necessary should the item you requested not be in-stock.  For example, a new book will be substituted for a used book or a for purchase used book substituted for a rental title.  Should you decide not to keep one or more of your textbooks you may return it/them in purchased condition (i.e., no writing in new books, unopened shrink-wrapped books, undamaged, etc.) and with the cash register receipt up to and including;

Spring 2011 and Summer session textbooks are available for On-line ordering for using UPS for shipments or as In-store Pickup.  You will be notified via e-mail when your order is complete.  Please do not come to the store prior to this notification if you selected the In-store Pick Up option.  Also, do not confuse the initial order confirmation you receive after checkout with the order is complete email notification.  If you've selected In-store Pick UP please bring a copy of your order and a photo ID.

In accordance with the Higher Education Opportunity Act we are listing course information in several new ways.

1.  We will show bundled textbooks (more than one component) both as a bundle and the individual components within the same course.  The bundled item will be shown as the Required book while the individual components will be displayed as Optional items.  Component items may be purchased but as a Special Order item.

2.  An E-book version of a textbook, if available, will display within the same course but show as an Optional book.  The e-Book may be purchased as a substitution to the physical book.  E-Books are downloadable versions of the actual book.  You will receive an access code and instructions on how to download the e-Book.

3.  If the book is available in a rental version a line displaying Book's Title Book Rental and Author's Name Rental will display along with the sale version of the book but as an (O)ptional book.   Rental Book title example;  A Problem Solving Approach To Mathematic Book Rent, Billstein Rental.  Please select either the new or used version of the book or its rental version but only one.  To make your selection(s) simply enter a 0 in the Qty box of the item you do not wish to purchase.  Textbook Rentals are available in limited quantities.

4.  ISBN numbers ending with a B are fabricated numbers.  Fabricated ISBN numbers may be due to course material that is custom printed, has no real ISBN number, is an NTR (No Text Required) class, or there is no course information is available at this time.

***Textbook prices are subject to change without notice.  This is due to publisher price increases.***   A price change may not be apparent on your on-line order or invoice but will be reflected on The University Store's cash register receipt that will accompany your order.  This is the amount you have actually been charged for an item or items.
