Subject: [baisl] online textbook purchasing
Hi all,
I'm trying to help our textbook manager find a better virtual bookstore option.
We currently use textbookx (aka akademos), but the books often take 2 weeks to
arrive (it is an East Coast warehouse), leaving students frustrated, especially
considering our terms are only 12 weeks long.
We would like to find one which can accommodate student/family ordering,
financial aid, and offers quick shipping ideally from a West Coast warehouse.
The two alternatives I've found are Follett Virtual Campus and eTechCampus
Virtual Bookstore. Does anyone have experience with either of these or others?
Thanks for any input you may have.
