The Library purchases at least 1 copy of most required print course texts, excluding novels, loose-leaf texts, and workbooks.

To request that the library purchase a textbook that falls outside of these parameters, please email: collections@macewan.ca.

Faculty interested in assigning a lower-cost alternative are invited to visit the Textbook Alternatives Guide to learn more.

Note: The Library cannot guarantee that students will have access to the textbooks they need when they need them. The Library's textbook collection was developed as a supplementary support collection and is not intended as a replacement for the purchase of required textbooks.
