Course Texts – For Students
See below for a list of classes for which we are stocking textbooks. All are U.C. Berkeley classes unless otherwise noted. Information will be updated as books come into the store. (Note: Updates might be a day or two late. Give us a call if you have any questions.)
Most of our books are new, though we may occasionally have one or two used copies available. We do not buy books back at the end of the semester.
A few texts are available as eBooks, which you can read on PCs, Macs, tablets, smart phones and any eBook reader that supports the ePub format. The “Kobo eBook” link appears when an eBook version of the specified edition exists.
SOLD OUT books can usually be ordered for you. Depending on the source, books take between 1 and 2 1/2 weeks to reach the store after we order them (see individual book listings for estimated time frames). Please call 548-0585 to order books.
