Online Book Requisitions ---
If you have books, coursepacks, materials to requisition for Summer or Fall 2013, please do so as quickly as possible.
An email from Dowdy Student Store is sent to all faculty teaching Summer & Fall 2013 courses, that includes a personalized login link to the new textbook requisition system. If you need this sent to you, please click on the link above and follow the instructions, or contact us: studentstores@ecu.edu.
With our online textbook requisition system you enter your information, the system keeps track of your textbook requisitions, and sends automated email reminders.
Your textbook contacts at Dowdy are Barbara Ward, Justin Bennett, or Shirley Johnson at the Wright Building location, and Shannon Tillett at the Medical Bookstore.
Why do we need your information so soon? There are several reasons:
1) So that book lists can be prepared for student schedules so they can find lower-cost textbooks.
2) The bookstore can search for more used books on the wholesale market to have on the shelves for students.
3. It is mandated by the UNC-GA that a minimum of 90% of all textbook requisitions be submitted by ECU faculty and reported at a date PRIOR to each buyback. The Provost, and Deans ask to be notified of faculty who meet this deadline each term as this must be listed in an annual report to the state. ECU is compared to other universities across the state in this report. In addition, the HEOA, Higher Education Opportunity Act has strict criteria and mandates requiring textbook information be provided to students to aid in determining textbooks costs when they register for courses.
Email us if you have questions, or phone (252) 328-6731.
