Buying Textbooks
The Carteret CC Bookstore is managed by Follet Higher Education, with locations on campus and online. Each offers a wide selection of textbooks in new, used, rental, and e-book format.
Alternative Retailers
You are not required to purchase your textbooks from the Carteret CC Bookstore. The same textbook may also be available from an independent retailer, including an online retailer.
Buy-back Services
Ask your bookstore about specific buy back policies. Generally, you can sell your textbook back at the end of the semester if it is in good condition and still required for Carteret CC coursework.
Textbook Returns
Ask your bookstore about specific return policies. Generally, returns are no problem with a valid receipt or packing slip.
