Roesch Library generally does not purchase textbooks assigned to students for their classes. In some cases, faculty may have placed materials for their courses on reserve for student use. Students may be also able to find an earlier edition of a textbook or a copy of a supplemental book. Search by title in UDiscover and look for the "Reserve" icon under the title and/or the note "On Reserve: Inquire at Hello Desk" next to the book's location.
