FAQ TEXTBOOKS

Q: I am looking for a textbook for UW Milwaukee. Do you carry it?
A: Most likely. We try to carry all of the books for every class at UWM. If
your instructor has placed a book order, we know about it. Unfortunately,
textbooks orders come in bit by bit for couple of months, therefore the
textbooks themselves come in bit by bit for a couple of months. There is
no way for us to track when certain book(s) are coming in. Your best
chance at a one stop shop is to pick up your textbooks the weekend
before classes begin. This gives you the best chance of finding
everything you need, as well as finding the books used. Call us and we
would be happy to answer this question personally. (414)-967-1111
Note: During the first few days of classes we are far too busy with our in-
store customers to answer every phone call.

Q: You did not have a book and I was wondering when you will
get it in?
A: This one’s tricky. Unfortunately, textbooks orders come in bit by bit
for couple of months, therefore the textbooks themselves come in bit by
bit for a couple of months. There is no way for us to track when certain
book(s) are coming in. Some orders are even placed after classes have
begun. We scramble to get them in the store and on the shelf as quickly
as possible. Call us and we would be happy to answer this question
personally. (414)-967-1111 Note: During the first few days of classes
we are far too busy with our in-store customers to answer the phone.

Q: I go to a school other than UWM. Do you carry books for other
schools?
A: Sometimes. At any given time we have hundreds of textbooks in our
basement stock, and perhaps the title you're looking for. The best way to
find out is to call the store and we can search for it personally. Please
have the Author, Title, and edition ready. If we don't have your book, we
would be happy to special order a copy just for you.
