Prepare for your course by ordering textbooks, eBooks and any necessary supplies. Our Course Materials Services team will work closely with publishers and vendors to ensure the correct materials are sourced for your course. Choose from alternative format options—whether you’re looking for physical textbooks, digital eBooks or a combination of the two.
Submit the form below at least 90 days prior to the start of your course to allow sufficient time for delivery.

Contact our team 90 days in advance of the start of term for timely print deliveries.
We will continue to accept course orders after this time, but please note that there may be delays in obtaining materials, particularly for print-on-demand or international titles.
We know that all students in a course may not purchase textbooks for a variety of reasons, and we carefully determine order quantities to balance availability with demand.
Some factors we consider include enrollment data, historical sales trends, available formats (print/digital) and publisher return policies.
Depending on publisher availability, you can select multiple formats such as print (hardcover, paperback, loose-leaf) and digital (standalone ebooks, or ebooks enhanced with courseware platforms). Our team will connect you with publishers to review your options.
When selecting course materials, it is imperative to consider all aspects of accessibility. For guidance, see the Recommendations for Accessible Course Materials, as supported by Accessible Education, Western Libraries, Dellelce Family Bookstore and the Centre for Teaching and Learning.
