HELPFUL TIPS to help you succeed with ease…
Your course materials are processed on a firstcome first-served basis. The sooner we receive the
material the more likely it will be available to the students
in a timely manner.
Provide us with camera-ready materials. Excessive
black areas may be difficult to print. An additional charge
may be passed on to your students if pages must be
edited.
Allow at least 4 to 6 weeks for packets containing
copywritten material. The closer we get to the start of
the semester, the longer it takes to obtain permission.
Thousands of faculty across the nation are also trying to
obtain permission from the same few publishers during
the same few weeks. For Spring Semester, keep in mind
that replies from publishers for copyright permission
become extremely slow during winter season holidays
due to vacationing staff.
Copyright permission must be requested from the
publisher for every semester. We request only one
semester at a time because there are a variety of
circumstances which may prevent the same material
from being included in a subsequent printing of a
CourseWorks for the same class. A complete
bibliography for each semester is extremely important for
copywritten material including: publisher, author, title,
ISBN, copyright year, volume number, edition and exact
page numbers. Your department’s Textbook Coordinator
can provide you with a bibliography form.
We cannot guarantee that permission will be
granted, assume that permission is forthcoming, or
print the materials based on previous permission.
Publishers change their policies and change their
copyright fees regularly.
If we sell out of a particular CourseWorks, the
students may request a copy at the Textbook
Counter. Textbook staff will call the students when the
CourseWorks packet is available and reserve it at the
counter for them to pick up. Reprints are usually
available the next business day.
We look carefully at past enrollments and the
purchasing history of a particular class in order to
make an educated decision to determine the quantity
of packets to print. We print copies for 100% of the
class enrollment only on CourseWorks produced for the
first time. In most cases, approximately 80% of the
students in a class will purchase the required materials.
We are happy to provide you with past sales information
for your course. We print between 2 million and 3 million
pages each semester and try to keep waste at a
minimum.
By virtue of an agreement between ISU Administration and the owners of Campus Book Store, CBS is allowed to purchase a copy of your coursepack
and reproduce and sell it provided they obtain proper copyright permission.
