Obtaining Books

Interested in purchasing a book? You may be able to find some of these books on reserve in the library. If you can't, you may want to check a local bookstore to see about purchasing them.

Another way is to order books from the web. Some web-based bookstores that carry a large selection of technical books are:

Book Pool Internet Bookstore
A1 Books
Books Stacks Unlimited, Inc.
Amazon.com Books
You can usually get books a little cheaper from the web, but you have to wait a few days. This is NOT an endorsement for any of these online bookstores by the staff or school.
