Faculty Handbook

8. Text Book Orders

Faculty members are responsible for ordering the texts for their courses using the textbook order form: http://form.jotform.com/72845429132963. A form should be completed when a textbook is being changed from the previous time that course was offered or when a new textbook is being adopted.

Faculty members are responsible for requesting desk copies of their adopted classroom texts from the appropriate textbook publisher. The university will not reimburse faculty for texts purchased for classroom use. If a department anticipates an exception that will require purchases, they should submit a budget request and justification.

It is the adjunct’s responsibility to connect with their department chair in regard to obtaining a desk copy of the textbook.

If a student is unable to obtain a copy of their textbook, the Center for Student Life has an emergency fund for students who need financial assistance.
