TEXTBOOKS

NOTE textbook ordering:  As most students know, there are now many different ways (and pricing schemes) to acquire/purchase textbooks.   From renting books (at about half price), then returning at the end of the quarter; to E-books (at about half price) that can be accessed during the quarter enrolled in; used textbooks, etc.   Some of the below will be from vendors (such as the De Anza College Bookstore, or other third party sellers).   Other arrangements online are between one individual selling to another individual.

Whatever route you choose, ALWAYS use the ISBN as the primary ordering criterion - this is really the only certain way that you are obtaining the correct, required textbook(s).
