and Library Services
Students
may buy all required texts through E-Follett
Online Bookstore (at "Find Your Bookstore, enter "California"
for the State then "California State Univeristy-Dominguez Hills"
for the Institution).
Required
books can also be located and purchased through major chain bookstores
or other sources, so long as they are the same edition as those
in the Follett University Bookstore. Used books may be bought and
exchanged at the Follett University Bookstore as well. Students
must (at some point in time) purchase books and other materials,
which will average about $75 per course. This may include the purchase
of audio cassettes/compact discs for music courses, or tickets for
theatre and concert performances, in addition to the required textbooks.
 HUX
students may request library identification cards for use at other
university libraries and facilities from the HUX
office. HUX students are entitled to the full services of the
Leo F. Cain Library
on the California State University, Dominguez Hills campus. The
Online Public Access Catalog, or OPAC, is available to all on- and
off-campus students. In addition, through interlibrary loan arrangements,
the resources of the Southern California members of the California
State University are accessible to HUX students who reside near
other CSU campuses.
Finding
Book Sources
In
addition to the services provided to our program by EFollett, you
may buy books from places such as Amazon.com, Borders, and Barnes
and Noble. Just BE SURE to order the same edition/publication listed
in the course guide and on the course web pages, which are linked
to the HUX Courses page.
Book
Buy-Backs at the CSUDH Follett University Bookstore
- How
much do I get?
The
bookstore will pay up to 50% of the new price of a book (regardless
of whether you purchased the title as new or as used),
if the book is needed for an upcoming term, and, if the book:
- is
a current edition (i.e. an edition that will be used the next
time the course is offered)
- is
in reasonably good condition (workbooks not marked in, binding
not damaged, etc.)
The
bookstore also buys back books everyday at national wholesale
value (anywhere from 0-33%) if the book is not needed for an
upcoming term.
- When
can I sell my books?
The
best time to sell books is during on-campus finals (mid-May
for Spring, mid-December for Fall), when you can get up to 50%.
You'll want to wait until right before the course is offered
again for better value, but don't wait too late!
- How
do I sell my books back?
Do
NOT send the actual books to the bookstore! First, you must
contact Follett University Bookstore/Follett DirectNet by mail,
fax, or e-mail (no phone calls), and provide them with a list
of the books you'd like to sell back. This list must
include the ISBN, title, author and edition for each
book, as well as information on how and when you can best be
contacted. They will then check on each of the titles, determine
the buy-back costs, and notify you of the total buy-back amount.
There is an $0.85 handling fee for the total buy-back transaction
(no matter how many books you plan to sell back)*.
