Textbook question

<p>The textbook list is online today and I have a question.</p>

<p>Does anyone know what “binder ready book” means?</p>

<p>It’s a book where the pages are not bound with a cover. It instead comes as a shrink-wrapped package where each page is punched with holes. Thus, it is ready to be placed in a three-ring binder that you supply yourself. I see lots of advantages to it. One of the most annoying things about textbooks is when you have to flip back and forth between pages. Plus, it is less expensive than a bound book (but it’s still not as cheap as a used book). Though, I highly doubt you can sell it back after the end of term.</p>

<p>not all the classes were online. im somewhat confused.</p>

<p>i mean the lists of textbooks for some of my classes were not online.</p>

<p>I think you actually can sell the binder ready books back. And some classes aren’t online because the professor hasn’t given the store the list yet.</p>

<p>ah thanks uaprophet. that makes sense.</p>

<p>We telephoned the Supply Store, and we learned that there are some classes that did not require books to be purchased. If that remains true, it will cost my son $275 this fall for his books, and those same books can be used multiple semesters. Gotta love math/foreign language sequences.</p>

<p>Do you believe we can email the Supply store and ask for the classes that aren’t up?</p>

<p>If a course isn’t listed, it’s because the professor hasn’t turned in his booklist.</p>
