Help Reduce Textbook Prices for Students

From VCU TelegRAM on December 5, 2007

By providing textbook adoption information before exams, the peak book-buyback period, faculty can increase the amount paid to students for their used textbooks while increasing the number of used books available to students the following semester. VCU Bookstores are legally obligated to share the textbook adoption information, thereby increasing competition in the marketplace. For more information, contact the VCU Bookstore on the Monroe Park Campus at 828-1678, or on the MCV Campus at 828-0336.
