>>> MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR IN-PERSON PICK UP <<<
If you are distance learning this term, or have circumstance that do not allow you to come in person, you can request your textbooks be mailed to you using the "Request Books to be Mailed" link on the left of this page. Mail requests can be made at any time. Processing of mailing requests started on Monday, January 11th. Due to large volume of requests and limited staff, mail requests may take up to 4 business days to be processed.
In person check-out of textbooks for J-term is at the Textbook Services Help Desk in 29 Hagestad Hall. You do not need an appointment.
For students who are unable to come in person to get J-term textbooks, submit a mailing request using the "Request Books to Be Mailed" link on the left side of this page. Mail requests received after 11:00 am will not be processed until the next business day.

All in person returns must be to one of our drop boxes or a designated drop point (see below.)
