To make a change to a required and/or optional text for a course, please complete the textbook change form using the link below. Changes include updating to a new edition of the same text.
Please note that changes to course readings is a separate process. Those changes can be sent to Aimee Niles, Library Technician (aimee.niles@frontier.edu).
The booklist is made available to students six weeks prior to the beginning of each term (see the timeline, right) via an announcement on the Banyan Tree portal page. Since students don't have access to syllabi until two weeks before the term starts, they must consult the booklist to see which textbooks they need to purchase. If a textbook is available electronically through the library, a link is provided on the booklist. Booklists for both the current and upcoming term are available on the KeyLinks homepage.
Required and optional textbooks are also listed at FNU's online bookstore. FNU uses Akademos, which operates TextbookX.com, as our online bookstore. The link to the online bookstore is provided below, and this link is also available on the Banyan Tree portal page under Courses.
Please contact Aimee Niles and she will change the Course Coordinator listing for the course.
If your textbook is available as a library e-book, it will be linked on the booklist in KeyLinks. It will also be noted in the Textbooks box in your course readings. If you are considering a new textbook, and want to see if it is available as an e-book, use the form on the e-Textbooks page.
You can consider using e-reserves/e-books or open educational resources. See Textbook Costs for more information.
