The bookstore is in need of your textbook adoptions for the upcoming 2016 Spring term. This is a notice that all book adoptions for Spring 2016 are due on October 15<sup>th</sup>. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>It is very important that the bookstore receives these adoptions as soon as possible in order to save our students the most money when the time comes for them to purchase their textbooks. Also, buyback season is right around the corner. Buying as many books as we can from students ultimately saves them money by reducing textbook costs. In addition, we are able to offer students more money for their books at buyback if we know that they are going to be used this Spring.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Please keep in mind that we do not keep books in house from the Fall term unless we have an official adoption form turned in and we are beginning to return left over books to publishers now. Also, we cannot order the books you need for your class until we have your official adoption in, and certain titles can take weeks to arrive in our stores. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The most simple and direct way to enter your book adoption is directly through the Campus Bookstore Website by clicking the link for <a href="http://www.amcbookstore.com/FacultyAdoption/FacultyAdoption/">Faculty Adoptions</a>. Just register an account with us, if you haven’t done so in the past, and follow the steps for Guided Adoptions. I am providing a step by step guide for your convenience if you are to have any questions about the online adoption process. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>You are also welcome to submit adoptions through fax or email and I am attaching a form you can use when doing so.
