Book Buying Tips
- Never buy a book (especially a used one!) until you've examined it to make sure it's in acceptable condition.
- Never write, mark, or soil your new textbook(s) until:
- you are sure you have the correct book(s)
- you are sure your class won't be canceled
- you are sure you won't drop (withdraw from) the course.
