Dear Students,

As you may know, the bookstore has a number of books that have been backordered.  We reached out to the publishers for online access options.

See below for some online access options:

West Academic

West Academic Web Store: As students purchase their fall casebooks, please remember that our Web Store is often their best option. Students who purchase print books through us get an immediate 14-day digital copy of their titles so they can complete required reading while materials are in transit. Additionally, our store remains the best place for lower-cost, digital purchase of West Academic titles. As a bonus, students should use discount code WAMEMPHIS to save 15% on nearly all print and digital material purchased through our store. 

Early eBook Access: Our Early eBook Access program delivers free electronic books for all West Academic titles adopted at your school. Access begins one week prior to the start of classes and continues through the first two weeks of class. This ensures all students have their required materials regardless of shipping delays, financial aid disbursement timing, or uncertainty during drop/add scheduling periods. This also presents a great opportunity for students to “test drive” the digital experience. Please find instructions for student access (below).

Digital and Print-on-Demand Options: Students who purchase a digital-only book (or print-and-digital bundles) receive access to a downloadable Vital Source version of their book, lasting from the day of purchase through their final exam and beyond.  Additionally, students who purchase digital books for core-curriculum classes can add low-cost, print-on-demand loose leaf copies of those materials.

Aspen

They have many of the backordered titles in stock.  If you purchase directly from them, you can receive immediate online access to your Connected eBook, even if you purchase a hard copy book.  You may be able to use this option and cancel your order with the bookstore.

Thanks,

Dean Aden
