Textbook service provides a unique textbook rental program for undergraduates. The textbook rental program is an economical alternative to purchasing most textbooks. The textbook rental fee is included in your student fees, payable at the Office of the Bursar.
Textbook Service is now located at 200 University Park Drive, lower level (MAP). When returning or picking up books, students who are driving must park in Parking Lot P4,
as there is no student parking at the Textbook
Service building. You will then cross the street to the sidewalk
leading to the rear entrance of 200 University Park. For students
not driving, there will be Cougar Shuttle service to the sidewalk
leading to Textbook Services
entrance. The shuttle will run on a regularly
scheduled basis during the extended hours of issues and returns.
Once inside the building, follow the hallway signs to the correct entrance needed.

SIUE Cougar
ID card is required to rent textbooks!Discount periods are intended to encourage students
to establish a personal library of books for general reference or
related to their major.
The Discount Period is an ideal time for students to buy the books
they would like to keep. All rental textbooks are available for sale
during this period at discounts of up to 40%, depending on how long
the book has been in use. Books are discounted 20% during the first
year of use, 30 % the second year, and 40% thereafter.
The Discount Rate does not apply to books returned late or not
returned. The student will be charged a cost that is equal to the
replacement cost of the textbook.
ALL DISCOUNT SALES ARE FINAL.
Dropping or Withdrawing from a Class
Students dropping classes or withdrawing from all classes
must return their texts immediately to avoid penalties. Textbooks
may be returned early if no longer needed. At the end of each semester,
textbooks must be returned to Textbook Service. The entire replacement
costs of the textbooks which are not returned will be charged to
the students account.
