How do I find out what textbooks I need for my courses?

 

The library does not rent or sell textbooks - to purchase your textbooks, reach out to the SUNY Ulster Bookstore operated by Barnes and Noble at 845-688-1917. The library cannot assist you with book vouchers or online access codes.

Information about the bookstore can be found on the the SUNY Ulster portal (starthere.sunyulster.edu) under Campus Engagement -> Campus Services. 

If you are having trouble paying for your textbooks, the Community Cares Emergency Funding program may be able to assist you! Apply for a grant through the Ulster Community College Foundation.

There are over 70,000 print books and even more ebooks available from the library to support students in their coursework, all freely available to SUNY Ulster students. Some textbooks have been put in the Course Reserves section at the Circulation Desk and may be borrowed for in library use only.
