Textbooks Access

All students in participating courses are automatically enrolled. However, they can opt-out or opt back in during the drop-add period on a course-by-course basis. Students who would like to review the option to opt-out of the program, please review the FAQ titled “Is the program required or can I opt-out of the program.”

Once you register for your courses, the bookstore will get any materials provided ready for you. You will receive confirmation emails sharing details to access digital materials in Canvas. If you have physical materials, the campus store will communicate with you when you can pick up these materials. You will want to check your LCCC email frequently.

If you are in courses that do not participate in the Textbook Access Program or have physical materials not provided through the program- like lab manuals and other physical books, you will need to place an order for these materials through the bookstore or another approved source.

There are many benefits to students, including:

• 20-60% lower than equivalent pricing for course materials.
• Billing directly charges your student account for participating courses/materials.
• Digital course materials are available day one.
• Digital platforms offer key features such as: highlighting, flash cards and note-sharing, leading to greater success in the course.
