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).
FNU uses Akademos, which operates TextbookX.com, as our online bookstore. Booklists are made available to students six weeks prior to the beginning of each term (see the timeline, right). Since students don't have access to syllabi unitl two weeks before the term, the bookstore listing serves as their official list. While students are free to buy their books wherever they choose, the TextbookX site is the only site that we refer them to.
Below is a link to the online bookstore. 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.
