Ordering Textbooks Online
AC Online students can order textbooks online through Connections: The Campus Store. There are two options available:
- Full-time students should use the Booklist feature which will identify all course textbooks required based on your current registration. Find out more online here.
- Part-time course registrants should order textbooks course-by-course using the Textbook Search feature. Follow the instructions below.
