Textbook Online Order Terms and Conditions

All textbooks, ISBN numbers, pricing, and course materials are subject to change without notice. Text and pricing information is subject to change including, but not limited to, faculty changes, publisher substitutions, or price changes.

All textbook totals are calculated at the time of the order placement using new prices. Orders with used textbooks, will have their total adjusted at the time the order is filled and charged.

  • This means that when you place your order, it will be calculated at the new book price, until the order is processed in the campus store, where the actual/final price is charged and the order is completed. 

The site is updated promptly after we receive any faculty course updates and/or price increases from each publisher at the point of product shipment. The ISBN number may represent a bundle of items instead of an individual title. Bundles are only available new.

Listing online does not guarantee in-stock status. Back orders and courses with no textbook adoptions will not be processed. Only books on hand at the time of processing will be included and charged in your order. We cannot guarantee the availability of used textbooks.

If "Used Preferred" is selected, new books will be provided if used books are not available to ensure you have a book. If “New Preferred” is selected, used books will be provided if new books are not available, also to ensure you have a book. Prices that are BLANK or TBD indicate that pricing information is currently unavailable for this item.
