RE: APRIL 1 - BOOK ADOPTIONS DUE

DATE: March 5, 2007

Textbook adoptions and class supply lists are due to the bookstores by APRIL 1.

It is critical that we receive this information from you to allow us time to prepare the used book buyback list. Used book buyback will be held during final exam week, May 14-18. Please indicate if package items (CD disks, study guides, etc.) will be used for your class. We need to know what parts of the package you will be using to determine what parts will need to be turned in at buyback.

TWO STUDENTS BENEFIT FROM ONE USED BOOK! Your current student receives cash back at buyback, and your future student saves money purchasing the same book next semester! Accurate and timely information from you provides an opportunity for a successful used book buyback. The bookstores will be buying used books based on the information provided by you.

Please check your mailboxes the week of March 19. We will be distributing blank adoption forms as well as forms generated from our text management system (based on information from prior semesters).

We will also continue to offer the option of placing your textbook adoptions ONLINE for Truax classes. Begin by going to the MATC Bookstore webpage. Scroll down to the bottom of the page, and click on “Faculty.” Fill in the boxes on this page, and click “Submit” when you are finished. After you submit your request an email will be sent confirming your order. If there are any questions please contact the bookstore at (608) 246-6017.

For questions, please contact:
Truax - Bettie Coffey 246-6017
DTEC - Kathy Last or Don Wesolowski 258-2417 or email Downtown Bookstore

We appreciate you continued communication and support!
