Used Textbooks and eTexts
Used Textbooks
Some courses may require students to log into an external publisher website using a code packaged with the text and this code may be required in order to complete the course successfully. Students who choose to purchase textbooks used may find that the book does not contain the code and/or may be packaged with a code which has been used previously.
eTexts
- In most cases, you only have access to the eText for 6 months, so if you want to hold on to the eBook as a reference source or if you need it again in the next semester, you might have to purchase it again.
- eTexts are not transferable, even between your own mobile devices.
- Since they are meant to be read on a computer, they are not easy to print.
- You will not have the opportunity to re-sell the eText at the end of the semester.
- Students cannot use eTexts during open book final exams
