Textbook Buyback and Rental Returns
Sell Your Textbooks
At the end of each term (or whenever you no longer need the book), the bookstore will buy back textbooks based on the book’s current market value and if the book is scheduled to be used by an instructor next term.
You can sell back your books in one of two ways:
1. Online via the bookstore's partner website, ValoreBooks; or
Return Textbook Rentals
If you rented textbooks this semester from the bookstore, they are due by Thursday, December 16.
You can return your books in one of two ways:
2. Ship your rentals to the store, using the shipping carrier of your choice. Note: Shipping is at your expense.
-
Sign in to your bookstore account using the same email address you provided at the register in-store or entered when you rented online. Note: If you don’t know your password, that’s OK – just click “Forgot Password” to reset.
- Once you’ve signed in, you will be navigated to the Rentals page to view your Rental Account Information and Rental History.
- Click “Return all Rentals by Mail” and follow the steps to print your packing slip.
- Print your packing slip, and include it with your rental shipment. Your packing slip is crucial to include in your box – it identifies you, what you’re returning, and where to send your rentals.
