<p>hey guys,</p>
<p>i just found out today that one of my courses requires a reader. is the only way for me to get it to go down to the place on westwood blvd (where is it exactly?) or can i order it online or pick it up in the bookstore? thanks</p>
<p>yes you have to go down to "course reader materials". its on 1137 westwood...straight down westwood...past rite aid. its on the right side as you walk down. i dont know if there still is, but there was a pretty long line in front. (hint...if you pay cash, the line is much shorter since everyone uses credit)</p>
<p>On Friday I showed up 2 minutes before they closed and there was no line whatsoever. After walking all the way down there I was so happy I just barely made it haha.</p>
<p>Yeah I went down there today thinking maybe the line had dissipated and it was all the way around the block. I'll be going back tomorrow since I definitely didn't have the time to stand there today. Blah.</p>
<p>yeah, i'd definitely suggest going early in the morning... college students generally don't get up early so there shouldn't be much of a line...</p>
<p>True. I have section in the morning, but nothing after that. So I guess I can spend all day there if need be. Sigh.</p>
<p>They're expensive too.. and not even complete. Some of the stuff is useless. I've spent $100+ on course readers this quarter. =/</p>
<p>you guys don't get your course readers from the bookstore?</p>
<p>nope, theres just this ONE shop in westwood that prints them. i swear, the owner of the shop must be filthy stinkin rich by now. it probably costs him like $5 or less to make each one, and hes selling them for $40, $50, $60, etc...</p>
<p>i don't understand why they can't ship them out to the bookstore...why do students have to go OUTSIDE the college to buy books :(?</p>
<p>Yeah, really! I mean, we pay the same exorbitant amounts for ours, but at least we can get them when we buy the rest of our books.</p>
<p>Yeah, supposedly they only charge 1 cent per page, and then they add on the copyright fee for each article/piece. My reader for Comm 100 is $38. Which isn't that bad, but still WAY more than what the professor was anticipating.</p>
<p>My reader from Comm 101 cost me $30. What I found odd is I always thought that Supreme Court cases were matters of public record, and not restricted by copyright laws.</p>
<p>i paid 66 bucks for 2 course readers... uchh</p>
<p>How many pages is that, exactly? 2000? :rolleyes:</p>
<p>psh..paid 74 for my course readers (2)</p>
