About the library and textbooks for your classes.

Looking for the textbooks required for your classes?  Unfortunately, the library is not the place to come.

Purchasing of textbooks happens at the Mica Peak Exchange bookstore in the Student Union Building.  Or, check out the book swap happening now on the second floor of the Student Union Building and maybe save a few clams.

Looking to get away without buying that expensive textbook?  Or, are you still waiting for that financial aid check?  Well, you can try your luck in the library, we'd love to see you!  But, Molstead Library does not purchase current textbooks to make them available for students.  You might get lucky once in a while and find an old edition of a particular text (or find one at University of Idaho Libraries), but odds are against it.  Maybe ask your instructor if they have an extra copy to place on reserve in the library!  That's the best advice I have for you.

See you soon in the library!
