Go to The Bookstore
The SFSU Bookstore has extended hours during the first two weeks of school. But why wait in line when you can buy online? Go to http://sfsubookstore.com/catalog/
Use the Library
- Search the library’s hardcopy reserves at http://opac.sfsu.edu/search/r and find them in HSS 102. If your professor has not put a copy on reserve for you, suggest they loan their extra copy to the Library’s Reserves Services.
- In general, our Library doesn’t buy textbooks. However, the LINK+ catalog includes the collections of many libraries in the region, and they may loan out the book you are looking for. Request books through Link+ and they get delivered for pickup at HSS 102.
