All Campuses

  • ​Can accept any summer term rental textbook regardless of which bookstore it was rented from.  If you rented from multiple campuses/bookstores you may return them all to a single bookstore location. 
  • Will be able to receive textbooks that are shipped back to them.  You can use the carrier of your choice and shipping will be at your expense (except Carroll, Netwon, and West).  We recommend using a trackable service. Below are the detailed instructions for shipping back your rented materials:

  1. ​Sign in to your campus bookstore website using the email you used to rent with.  If you forgot or haven’t set up a password please click “forgot password” to reset.  Then click on My Account-Rentals.
  2. You will be directed to the “Rentals Page” in “My Account”.
  3. Scroll down to view “Rental History”.  Click the “Return by Mail Button” or “Return all Rentals by Mail” link.  A pop-up will open.
  4. Follow the steps to print your packing list.  Print 2 copies, one to go in your box, the other to take to your shipping carrier as it has the store address.
  5. Take note of your tracking number.  You will receive an email confirmation when your rental return is processed.
  6. If the above steps do not work for you please write your name, email address, phone number, and patron id on a sheet of paper to include with your rental return package.
