Late Textbooks And eSIS Holds

If you notice a Textbook Services hold on your eSIS account that was placed on December 26th or 27th, it may be an automated entry from our End of Term process. When we run our End of Term report, any student that eSIS shows with an unreturned textbook from Fall semester will have a hold placed for the full replacement value of the unreturned books. Once the books are returned, you will pay the normal late fee ($5 - $15 per class depending on how late it is returned.) If you feel your hold was placed in error (i.e. you returned all your books), contact Textbook Services at textbookservices@uwrf.edu. Include your name and "W" number in the email.

Hours for Textbook Issue

Textbook Services will be open extended hours for issuing textbooks for Spring term. Spring term books can be checked out starting Tuesday, January 21st once all books from any previous terms are returned and any fines owed Textbook Services are paid.

REMINDER: All Textbooks for J-term are due by 4:00 p.m. on Monday, January 27th and must be returned before you get your Spring term books.
