The Bookstore is not directly involved in the selection of textbooks for your classes. Faculty decides which book(s) are used for their courses after reviewing many different options. Once a selection is made, the professors inform The Bookstore which books or materials should be ordered.

The Bookstore works to keep prices of textbooks down. For example, the Bookstore encourages the faculty to choose their textbooks early so we can get as many used copies as possible. We offer a variety of textbook options, including e-textbooks. We do not markup textbook, but merely cover the costs.

It means a few things: either you don’t have a required book for your class, or the professor hasn’t turned in an order yet, or the reading material has been put on Moodle.
