Textbook FAQ
How do I order my textbooks?
Merriman Bookstore has partnered with MBS Direct, a nationwide vendor for online textbook rental and purchases, beginning with the Fall 2017 semester! Visit allegheny.edu/buybooks to get started. Simply order all of your textbooks online and have them shipped to the College’s Post Office or another address. The Merriman Bookstore will not stock textbooks anymore. All textbooks must be ordered online.
How do I get my course packs?
Course packs will continue to be sold through the Merriman Bookstore. Just come in through our regular entrance on Main Street in the Campus Center (not the third-floor window used in prior years) and ask the cashier if you don’t see the course packs.
Course packs will not be available online. However, they will be listed (along with books being used) if your faculty member has ordered one. When you see a price for the course pack, that means it’s available for purchase at the cash register.
Visit the MBS Direct Help Center for more FAQs.
Textbook Copyright Forms for Faculty
We leave the determination of what is or isn’t fair use up to the individual faculty member. If everything in your coursepack is fair use and no royalties need to be paid, then you can fill out a Form 1A stating same, sign and return to the bookstore.
If there are any parts of your coursepack that do not meet fair use criteria, then you will need to also fill out Form 1B (and sign and return).
In either case, we must have the appropriate form(s) on file in the bookstore before the printshop will actually print your coursepack. Please be advised that if your Form 1B includes material not in the Copyright Clearance Center database it may take us several weeks to process your request.
