Can I get physical (print) copies of my textbooks?
Answer
It depends.
Textbooks offered through the BibliU Equitable Access (EA) program are only available in digital format. You may choose to opt out and source your own materials. However, keep in mind that opting out is all or nothing. If you choose to opt out, you will lose access to all BibliU-provided materials for all of your classes in a given semester.
Textbooks that are considered Open Educational Resources (OER) are also generally provided in digital format. However, you may be able to purchase a print version of your OER textbook from online vendors, such as OpenStax or Amazon.
Textbooks that are not considered OER or included in the BibliU EA program, may be purchased from the CGTC Bookstore or other vendors, with some being available in physical format.
When searching for textbooks on the Bookstore's website, books listed for sale under Purchase will be provided in physical format, while digital materials are clearly labeled as such.
