You have indicated that your course will have a course packet. The ISU Bookstore will contact you directly, regarding the contents of your course packet. Please watch your email account (including junk mail folder) for any emails from them.

Desk Copy Information

Do you need a desk copy of this textbook?*

Acquiring desk copies is becoming increasingly more difficult so, please only select "yes" if your book meets one of the following criteria:
1. I have not used this book before, so I do not have a desk copy.
2. I have used this book before but it is a different version AND the versions are different enough that I need a new desk copy.
3. My current desk copy is falling apart (but held together by the magic of duct tape).

Do you need to keep this textbook?*

How many desk copies will potential TAs need? (best guess please)*

Comments (e.g. "Please do not use Immediate Access for this course because my students take open-book in-class exams.")
