January book lists online NOW

Vancouver and the Okanagan.

Vancouver and the Okanagan book lists are online NOW. Please enter your student ID# and you will see your own personalised book list - just click on the GREEN 'SHOP' button.

5 CHOICES FOR YOU: Rental (a used rental book saves you 55% off the new price, a new rental book saves you 45% off the new price*), used, new, custom or ebooks.

Price comparisons:

To show you how we compare with Amazon.ca in terms of pricing, we have looked at the prices of about 200 of our books (Vancouver titles, but other campuses may be interested in the price differences). You can see the comparison price list here. We can only show the 'new' price comparison, as Amazon does not stock all the titles as 'used' books. We have not been able to compare with other book sellers in Canada as they a) do not have many textbooks b) they have no online presence.Please read the small print on Amazon.ca and check that the book you want at the price you want is really in stock and also that it will be sent to you in time for class.
