The Walsh Online Bookstore

Beginning with the Fall 2022 term, Walsh College will launch a bookstore platform where students order textbooks through a new Online Bookstore website and have textbooks delivered to their home while digital course material access is emailed. Students will be contacted once the website is live for ordering.

Faculty Resources:

Faculty members use the convenient web portal to submit their course materials in advance of each semester. Using this portal, faculty view the courses they will be teaching, select the materials they want to use, and see what costs would be for students. The portal also has an option to create coursepacks.

Ordering Books

When can I order my textbooks for the semester?

  • Textbooks information for the upcoming term is not available until 30 days prior to the start of class.
  • Book orders do not begin to be filled until about 15-20 days prior to the start of class.
  • The bookstore uses buyback and our rental return period to source used books for the upcoming term.
  • If you choose a used condition of a textbook and the bookstore does not have it, the order will be filled with new.

When do I need to return my rented books?

  • Rentals are due on the last day of the term. If you have a final on the last day or after, please return the book as soon as possible so we can use it for the upcoming term.
  • There is a grace period of about 3 days before charges are made.
  • Late rentals are charged a replacement fee and late fee. Once books are received only the replacement fee will be refunded.

How do I know what books I need?

  • Course material listed as required on the bookstore website are the materials that the professor has chosen as the main materials you will use in the course.
  • Recommended course materials are the materials the professor recommends for use based on your level of understanding. It is not required but deemed helpful for some. If you are unsure, please contact your professor or bookstore for further information.
  • Course materials listed as value option or package component, are course materials that are bundled or a different format to be cost effective for students.
  • With digital, value option, or package component material, you only need to order one or the other. You do not need to order both the main required book and the digital, value option, or package component for the same text.
  • If you see Cengage Unlimited as an option for you course, please be sure to order either the main required course material or the Cengage unlimited. You do not need both since the subscription comes with an ebook.

Notes

  • If you are using financial aid, be sure that you have filled out your bookstore authorization form with the financial aid office before placing your order.
  • If you receive messaging that your order is on backorder you do not need to reach out to the bookstore right away for information. Backorder does not mean the book is not available but rather that the book is on order for you and should be arriving soon. If the book is not available, the bookstore will reach out to you and the professor to communicate as soon as we are notified that we are unable to obtain the book.
