The textbook rental fees can be found on the Tuition and Fee Schedule.

Textbook pickup for traditional students will usually begin one week prior to the beginning of classes. All pick-ups and drop-offs take place at the Specker Library circulation desk during regular library hours. Graduate and Accelerated students will have their books delivered directly to their home address officially on record. Please make sure your address is current. You can check your mailing address by accessing your eCampus account through the Wave Portal at portal.www.ccsj.edu.  Please forward any address changes to the Registrar’s Office via email at registrar@ccsj.edu.

Students may elect to keep any rental book they receive. A charge of 50% of the publisher’s list price will be billed to the student account for each non-returned rental book.

Please treat rental books like any other valuable item as it is the students’ responsibility to return all books in good condition at the end of each semester. A charge of 50% of the publisher’s list price will be billed to the student account for each non-returned rental book.

All book fees including up-charges for books kept, lost or stolen will be billed to the student account.

All rental books must be returned by the specified deadlines to avoid incurring additional fees. Traditional Students will return their books to the library circulation desk. Graduate and Accelerated students can print a pre-paid return label by accessing their eCampus account through the Wave Portal at portal.www.ccsj.edu. Books will be shipped back via UPS using the provided label or return them to the library circulation desk during regular library hours.

Students who have a documented print disability may request a copy of their textbooks in alternative format.
Please contact Disability Services at jmackowicz@ccsj.edu to obtain details about this process. Alternate formats include e-text, audio, large print, Braille, or other formats. Requesting textbooks in an alternate format can sometimes be a lengthy process. Please be aware that although some texts can be acquired quickly, the process can take up to three weeks, so do not delay in submitting your request.

Requests to keep a textbook beyond the return date are handled on a case by case basis.  Please email the bookstore manager at books@ccsj.edu with your request prior to the return deadline.  Additional rental fee charges may apply.

The completion of registration triggers the textbook ordering process. The textbook rental fees are attached to registration and therefore cannot be waived. Unclaimed textbooks will be returned to the vendor during the second half of the semester.

CCSJ has a contractual agreement with the vendor requiring books to be returned within 7 calendar days after the semester ends. The college cannot override this deadline.

Students may return their books late if they wish to donate them to the library for other students that might lose or damage their own books. Students will be assessed a non-return fee which will be applied directly to the student account.

Congratulations on your accomplishment! End-of-semester book returns for completers are managed just the same as regular book returns. As an added convenience to all students, returns may be sent back directly to the vendor by accessing the eCampus account and printing a prepaid UPS return label (see first FAQ above). Please return materials in a timely manner in advance of the posted return deadlines to avoid additional fees. As a reminder, student acounts with unpaid balances at the time of degree completion risk the withholding of transcripts and/or diploma.

eCampus will not assess an additional fee for textbooks returned within 7 days of a class drop. Textbook rental fees are part of a book package which means that a singular book return will likely not affect the semester book rental fee. Schedule changes may result in the charging of other fees, however. Students are encouraged to discuss the implication of course drops and the associated fees for these transactions with their advisor.
